Release 1. This is the first release of this qualification in the UEE Electrotechnology Training Package

This qualification covers competencies to select, install, commission, fault find and maintain data processing, communications and control aspects of systems used for monitoring and control of systems for access, surveillance, safety and effective operation of manufacturing, buildings, structures, premises and precincts.

No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this qualification at the time of publication.

There are no entry requirements for this qualification

A total of 1280 weighting points  comprising:

600 core weighting points  listed below; plus

680 general elective weighting points  from the general elective units listed below.

Choose a total of 680 weighting points  elective units from the list below, of which between 0 and 220 weighting points  can be taken from Group A; and between 0 and 500 weighting points  must be taken from Group B; and between 180 and 680 weighting points  must be taken from Group C; or all 680 weighting points  can be taken from Group C.

Up to 220 weighting points  of the general elective units Group A, may be selected, with appropriate contextualisation, from any relevant nationally endorsed Training Package or accredited course, provided selected units contribute to the vocational outcome of the qualification. Previously assigned weighting points are listed in the UEE Electrotechnology Training Package Companion Volume Implementation Guide (CVIG), if not listed weighting points will be 10 points, unless directed from the Electrotechnology Industry Reference Committee (IRC).

There are units of competency within this qualification that contain pre-requisites. Units of competency that have a pre-requisite requirement are identified by this symbol *. Refer directly to the units of competency to identify pre-requisite requirements to ensure all are complied with. A list of all pre-requisites is also provided in the UEE Pre-requisite Companion Volume.

Where imported units are selected, care must be taken to ensure all pre-requisite units specified are complied with.
