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.

Engineering diagnosis development and work functions must include at least the following:

• working safety
• applying problem-solving techniques
• using a range of mathematical processes
• provision of electrical/electronic engineering problem solutions
• solutions justification

This unit replaces and is equivalent to UEENEEE126A Provide solutions to basic engineering computational problems.

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 (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements, including

• using risk control measures

• completing work and documenting problem-solving activities
• dealing with unplanned events in accordance with problem-solving techniques and workplace procedures
• documenting justification of solutions provided
• obtaining known constants and variables
• solving problems using appropriate mathematical processes
• stating problems in documented and diagrammatic form.

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 and include knowledge of:

• algebraic manipulation

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 simulations
• relevant and appropriate materials, facilities, tools and equipment currently used in industry
• resources that reflect current industry practices in relation to providing computational solutions to basic engineering problems
• applicable documentation, including workplace procedures, equipment specifications, regulations, codes of practice and operation manuals.
