Description
The unit of competency applies to engineering or related projects requiring avionic engineering skills and includes the identification, application and integration of avionic fundamentals. It includes identifying task parameters, personal and team function, chain of responsibility and work health and safety (WHS) guidelines. It includes investigation of aircraft electrical, instrument, radio and data systems and components and avionic fundamentals, including electrical and electronic methods and processes, workshop techniques, materials, scientific and mathematical principles and computer software. It requires completion of the task in cooperation with the team and documentation of the process and outcomes.It is suitable for people pursuing paraprofessional careers and qualifications in avionic engineering.This unit is used in workplaces that operate under the airworthiness regulatory systems of the Australian Defence Force (ADF) and the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA).
