Release 1	This version first released with AUR Automotive Retail, Service and Repair Training Package Version 6.0

Performance Evidence

The candidate must demonstrate the ability to complete the tasks outlined in the elements, performance criteria and foundation skills of this unit, including evidence of the ability to:

safely depower the rechargeable energy storage system (RESS) and separated extra low voltage (SELV) system of two different battery electric vehicles (BEVs), and stabilise the vehicles ensuring that no residual high voltage (HV) is measured

safely reinitialise each BEV’s RESS and SELV system and confirm correct vehicle operation.

Knowledge Evidence

The candidate must be able to demonstrate knowledge to complete the tasks outlined in the elements, performance criteria and foundation skills of this unit, including knowledge of:

methods to locate and interpret information required to depower and reinitialise battery electric vehicles, including:

vehicle manufacturer specifications and procedures or equivalent documentation

workplace procedures required to depower and reinitialise battery electric vehicles, including:

establishing the serviceability of tools and equipment

documentation procedures

housekeeping procedures, including:

examination of tools and equipment

storage of equipment

identification, tagging and isolation of faulty equipment

disposal of excess materials

recycling procedures

work health and safety (WHS) requirements relating to depowering and reinitialising BEVs, including procedures for:

identifying hazards and controlling risks associated with:

working with high voltages on BEV electrical systems

wearing jewellery while working around high electrical currents

determining appropriate procedures for minimising risk associated with hazards, including applying electrical safety precautions when:

using personal protective equipment (PPE), including electrical safety gloves with 1000 volt rating and Australian standards rated HV insulating mat

identifying and using firefighting equipment as appropriate

using the ‘one hand’ rule

following live system warning tags and signs

depowering vehicle

isolating HV RESS electrical supply

stabilising vehicle electrical system

requirements of AS 5732 Electric vehicle operations - Maintenance and repair

operating principles of RESS and SELV electrical systems relevant to a range of BEVs

purpose and operation of a range of vehicle RESS depowering and reinitialising methods.

Assessment Conditions

Competency is to be assessed in the workplace or a simulated environment that accurately reflects performance in a real workplace setting.

Assessment must include direct observation of tasks.

Where assessment of competency includes third-party evidence, individuals must provide evidence that links them to the BEVs that they have depowered and reinitialised e.g. repair orders.

Assessors must verify performance evidence through questioning on skills and knowledge to ensure correct interpretation and application.

The following resources must be made available:

automotive repair workplace or simulated workplace

PPE and safety equipment, including electrical safety gloves with 1000 volt rating and Australian standards rated HV insulating mat

manufacturer specifications and service procedures for the BEVs being depowered and reinitialised

AS 5732 Electric vehicle operations - Maintenance and repair

two different BEVs as specified in the performance evidence

electrical test equipment, including:

digital multimeter with Cat III 1000 volt rating

insulation tester

residual voltage tester, if specified in original equipment manufacturer (OEM) test requirements

scan tool

tools, equipment and materials appropriate for depowering and reinitialising BEVs.

Assessors of this unit must satisfy the requirements for assessors in applicable vocational education and training legislation, frameworks and/or standards.
