Description
This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to fault find and repair analogue circuits and components in electronic control systems.It includes fault finding and repairing analogue circuits as well as completing and reporting on fault and repair activities. It also includes analogue circuits and components to logical fault-finding processes, implementing fault rectification, safety and functional testing.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. Where a licence or permit to practice is not held, a relevant contract of training, such as an Australian apprenticeship, is required. 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 fault find analogue circuits
- 1.1 WHS/OHS requirements and workplace procedures are identified and applied
- 1.2 Hazards are identified, risks assessed and control measures implemented
- 1.3 Safety hazards not previously identified are reported on job safety assessment and advice on risk control measures is sought from relevant person/s
- 1.4 Extent of faults is determined from reports, other relevant documentation and discussions with relevant person/s
- 1.5 Relevant person/s is consulted to ensure work is coordinated with others
- 1.6 Tools, equipment and testing devices required to diagnose faults are obtained in accordance with workplace procedures and checked for correct operation and safety
2 Fault find and repairanalogue circuits
- 2.1 WHS/OHS risk control measures and procedures for carrying out the work are followed
- 2.2 Need to test or measure live electrical components is determined in accordance with workplace procedures
- 2.3 Circuits/machines/plant are checked and isolated in accordance with workplace procedures
- 2.4 Logical diagnostic methods are applied to electronic control system apparatus faults by employing measurements and estimations of system operating parameters
- 2.5 Scenarios are tested as suspected cause of system faults
- 2.6 Fault causes are identified and relevant person/s engaged where fault is outside scope of analogue circuits and components
- 2.7 Faults in electronic components of control system are rectified
- 2.8 System is tested and verified as operating to specified job requirements
- 2.9 Unplanned situations are responded to in accordance with workplace procedures in a manner that minimises risk to personnel and equipment
- 2.10 Methods for dealing with unexpected situations are selected based on safety and specified work outcomes
- 2.11 Diagnosis and rectification work activities are performed using sustainable energy principles and practices without waste of materials, damaging apparatus, the surrounding environment or services
3 Complete and report fault-find and repair activities
- 3.1 WHS/OHS work completion risk control measures and procedures are followed
- 3.2 Work site is made safe in accordance with workplace safety procedures
- 3.3 Rectification of faults is documented in accordance with workplace procedures
- 3.4 Relevant person/s is notified of system fault rectification in accordance with workplace procedures
