Description
This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to diagnose and rectify faults in systems controlling starting, speed, torque, power output, efficient running and braking for motor drive systems.It includes working safely; interpreting technical data; applying knowledge of motor operating parameters to logical fault-finding techniques; implementing fault rectification, safety and functional inspection; testing; and reporting work activities and outcomes.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
Notes
Elements and Performance Criteria
1 Prepare to evaluate motor drive systems
  • 1.1 Work, health and safety (WHS) / occupational health and safety (OHS) risk control measures are identified and applied
  • 1.2 Scope of work, including motor drive systems to be evaluated is determined from relevant documentation and in consultation with relevant people
  • 1.3 Tools, equipment and testing devices needed to diagnose faults are obtained and checked for correct operation and safety
2 Evaluate motor drive systems and diagnose faults
  • 2.1 Circuits/machines/plant are inspected, checked and isolated, as required, in accordance with WHS/OHS requirements and workplace procedures
  • 2.2 Logical diagnostic methods/techniques are applied to evaluate motor drive operation and diagnose motor control system faults employing measurements and estimations of system operating parameters referenced to system operational requirements
  • 2.3 Fault scenarios are tested and confirmed as being the source of system problems in accordance with workplace procedures
  • 2.4 Causes of the faults are identified and recommendations to rectify the fault are documented
  • 2.5 System is inspected and tested to verify that the system operates as intended and to specified requirements
  • 2.6 Evaluation and diagnosis activities are carried out efficiently, without unnecessary waste of materials or damage to apparatus, the surrounding environment or services, using sustainable energy practices
3 Complete and report fault diagnosis and rectification activities
  • 3.1 Worksite is made safe in accordance with workplace safety procedures
  • 3.2 Evaluation and rectification activities are documented
  • 3.3 Relevant people are notified of work completion.
