Description
1)1.1) DescriptorThis unit covers determining correct operation of amplifiers. It encompasses working safely, problem solving procedures, including the use of voltage, current and resistance measuring devices, providing solutions derived from measurements and calculations to predictable problems in amplifier sections/circuits.
Notes
Elements and Performance Criteria
1 Prepare to troubleshoot amplifiers.
  • 1.1 OHS procedures for a given work area are obtained and understood.
  • 1.2 OHS risk control work preparation measures and procedures are followed.
  • 1.3 The nature of amplifier fault is obtained from documentation or from work supervisor to establish the scope of work to be undertaken.
  • 1.4 Advice is sought from the work supervisor to ensure the work is co-ordinated effectively with others.
  • 1.5 Sources of materials that may be required for the work are established in accordance with established procedures.
  • 1.6 Tools, equipment and testing devices needed to carry out the work are obtained and checked for correct operation and safety.
2 Troubleshoot amplifiers.
  • 2.1 OHS risk control work measures and procedures are followed.
  • 2.2 The need to test or measure live is determined in strict accordance with OHS requirements and when necessary conducted within established safety procedures
  • 2.3 Circuits are checked as being isolated where necessary in strict accordance OHS requirements and procedures.
  • 2.4 Fault finding is approached methodically drawing on knowledge of amplifiers using measured and calculated values of parameters.
  • 2.5 Unexpected situations are dealt with safely and with the approval of an authorised person.
  • 2.6 Fault finding activities are carried out efficiently without unnecessary waste of materials or damage to apparatus and the surrounding environment or services and using sustainable energy practices.
3 Complete work and document troubleshooting activities.
  • 3.1 OHS work completion risk control measures and procedures are followed.
  • 3.2 Work site is cleaned and made safe in accordance with established procedures.
  • 3.3 Justification for solutions used to troubleshooting problems is documented.
  • 3.4 Work completion is documented and an appropriate person or persons notified in accordance with established procedures.
