Unit of competency
Modification History
Release 2. Quantum of hours of workplace practice removed. Supersedes and is equivalent to MEM10006 Install machine/plant (Release 1).
Release 1. Supersedes and is equivalent to MEM10006B Install machine/plant.
Application
This unit of competency defines the skills and knowledge required to install machine/plant where the equipment being installed requires substantial modification to the existing site and/or connecting equipment and excludes minor modifications.
Work is undertaken utilising new or existing external and internal locations and sites and foundations, footings, beds and frameworks are completed prior to installation and commissioning.
Installation covered by this unit also excludes electrical installation.
Where design skills are required see unit MEM09011 Apply basic engineering design concepts.
Where existing machines/plant are replaced by the same or similar machine/plant see unit MEM18006 Perform precision fitting of engineering components.
Where balancing skills or manufacture of gaskets is required see appropriate units.
No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
