UEERE0077 Install battery storage equipment power conversion equipment to grid

Modification History

Release 1. This is the first release of this unit of competency in the UEE Electrotechnology Training Package. This unit replaces and is not equivalent to UEERE4001 Install, maintain and fault find battery storage systems for grid-connected photovoltaic systems. Modifications include: Unit title changed Unit application updated Prerequisites changed Significant amendments made to Elements and Performance Criteria Range of conditions updated Significant amendments to performance and knowledge evidence requirements and CVIG content developed Assessment conditions updated.

Application

This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to install battery storage equipment power conversion equipment (PCE) to grid. It includes working safely and to industry installation standards, placing and securing system components accurately, making required circuit connections and completing the necessary installation documentation. The skills and knowledge described in this unit require a licence or permit to practice in the workplace where work is carried out on electrical installations, which are designed to operate at voltages greater than 50 volt (V) alternating current (a.c.) or 120 V direct current (d.c.). Competency development activities in this unit are subject to regulations directly related to licensing. Where a licence or permit to practice is not held, a relevant contract of training, such as an Australian Apprenticeship, is required. Additional and/or other conditions may apply in some jurisdictions subject to regulations related to electrical work. Practice in the workplace and during training is also subject to work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS) regulations. Note: Those holding an Unrestricted Electrician’s Licence or equivalent issued in an Australian state or territory meet the prerequisite requirements of UEEEL0012 Install low voltage wiring, appliances, switchgear and associated accessories. All other prerequisite requirements must be met.
