Assessors must verify performance evidence through questioning on skills and knowledge to ensure correct interpretation and application.
The following resources must be made available:
- automotive manufacturing workplace or simulated workplace
- vehicle electrical system specifications
- inspection reports relating to repairing electrical faults in assembled vehicles
- electrical repair tools and equipment
- electrical test equipment
- vehicles or components with defects
- repair instructions relating to electrical faults in assembled vehicles
- repair quality procedures relating to electrical faults in assembled vehicles
