Release 1.  This is the first release of this unit of competency in the UEP Generation Training Package.

This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to undertake the installation of electronic equipment containing solid state components, complex control panels and complex control equipment in a power generation facility.

Installation of electronic equipment containing complex panels, equipment and components to meet power generation facility requirements should comply with manufacturers' specifications.

Competency in this unit requires the ability to plan work, install electronic equipment and to report on all completed work tasks. Individuals will, in general, work under supervision in an electrical, electronic and/or mechanical equipment repair workshop or on site.

Power generation maintenance personnel are typically trained and authorised to receive permits to work.

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

Note: Workplace practice 

The application of the skills and knowledge described in this unit of competency may require a licence or training permit to practice in the workplace, where work is carried out on gas and electrical installations. Additional and/or other conditions may apply under state and territory legislative and regulatory licensing requirements.
