Description
1) 1.1) DescriptorThis unit covers ascertaining correct operation of single and three phase circuits and solving circuit problems as they apply to servicing, fault finding, installation and compliance work functions. It encompasses safe working practices, multiphase circuit arrangements, issues related to protection, power factor and MEN systems and solutions to circuit problems derived from calculated and measured parameters.
Notes
Elements and Performance Criteria
