Description
This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to Coordinate the installation, fault finding and repair of micro grid systems.It includes verifying design and liaising with designer as required, engaging and scheduling contractors and other experts required for completion of work, planning the installation and repair of micro-grid systems, ensuring installed/repaired system components are compliant, conducting quality checks, ensuring system is correctly programmed, testing and commissioning the system and completing necessary documentation.Micro-grids can include a number of different configurations, both grid-connected and off-grid. They require the installation of the individual generation equipment (including renewable energy systems) which supply up to the Point of Common Supply (POCS). Network of data interconnection and the programming require the installation of the individual data communication to a central data network and commissioning of the data system. A team of specialized line workers and engineer would complete the distribution system between the individual systems, this would have been part of the coordinators design brief.The skills and knowledge described in this unit require a licence or permit to practice in the workplace where work is carried out on electrical installations which are designed to operate at voltages greater than 50 volt (V) alternating current (a.c.) or 120 V direct current (d.c.).Competency development activities in this unit are subject to regulations directly related to licensing.Additional and/or other conditions may apply in some jurisdictions subject to regulations related to electrical work. Practice in the workplace and during training is also subject to work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS) regulations.
Notes
Elements and Performance Criteria
1 Prepare to coordinate work on micro-grid systems
