Foundation skills essential to performance are explicit in the performance criteria of this unit of competency.

Range is restricted to essential operating conditions and any other variables essential to the work environment.

Non-essential conditions may be found in the UEE Electrotechnology Training Package Companion Volume Implementation Guide.

Selecting components for assembly must include at least two different electronic apparatus. These apparatuses must consist of the following basic features:

• a chassis
• printed circuit board
• adjustment components and interconnections

This unit replaces and is equivalent to UEENEEA102A Select electronic components for assembly.

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

Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements, performance criteria and range of conditions on at least two separate occasions and include:

• applying relevant work health and safety / occupational health and safety (WHS/OHS) requirements, including using risk control measures
• completing workplace report
• dealing with unplanned events in accordance with workplace procedures in a manner that minimises risk to personnel and equipment
• preparing and selecting electronic components, including:

• following job specifications
• identifying and selecting components
• handling components without damaging
• adhering to relevant quality procedures

• using problem-solving techniques in accordance with workplace procedures.

• types of electronic components, including resistors, inductors, capacitors, diodes, transistor, integrated circuits, printed circuit boards, sub-assemblies, and mounting/enclosing, connection and termination hardware.

Assessors must hold credentials specified within the Standards for Registered Training Organisations current at the time of assessment.

Assessment must satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence and all regulatory requirements included within the Standards for Registered Training Organisations current at the time of assessment.

Assessment must occur in suitable workplace operational situations where it is appropriate to do so; where this is not appropriate, assessment must occur in simulated suitable workplace operational situations that replicate workplace conditions.

Assessment processes and techniques must be appropriate to the language, literacy and numeracy requirements of the work being performed and the needs of the candidate.

Resources for assessment must include access to:

• a range of relevant exercises, case studies and/or other simulations
• relevant and appropriate materials, tools, facilities, equipment and personal protective equipment (PPE) currently used in industry
• applicable documentation, including workplace procedures, equipment specifications, regulations, relevant industry standards, codes of practice and operation manuals.
