Description
This unit of competency describes the skills and knowledge required to operate, monitor and maintain power generation systems and record and report operating data.The unit applies to production support operators who monitor and control power generation systems, in a pulp or paper manufacturing facility. This typically involves working in a facility with complex integrated equipment and continuous operations.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication. Where the turbine equipment falls under the category for which a High Risk Work Licence is required, this unit should not be used and the appropriate unit should be sought.
