Course Description
This unit covers the use of drawings, diagrams, equipment and cable schedules and manuals as they apply to the various electrotechnology work functions. It encompasses the rudiments for communicating with schematic, wiring and mechanical diagrams and equipment and cable/connection schedules, manuals, site and architectural drawings and plans showing the location of services, apparatus, plant and machinery.

Learning Outcomes
Details of Learning Activities
This unit covers Drawings and diagrams
Evidence shall show an understanding of drawings, diagrams and schedules used in
Electrotechnology work to an extent indicated by the following aspects:
Drawing types and applications, Drawing layouts and conventions, Drawing symbols, Cable/wiring/connection and equipment/component/schedules
Classroom tutorial activities: to consolidate the concepts of mechanical drawings, electrical/electronic schematics, wiring diagrams, PC boards, location diagrams (architectural drawings), cable routes and switching arrangements and building details. Symbols representing Electrotechnology circuit components, equipment location and cable routes and control arrangements.
Practical exercises: to demonstrate an understanding topics related mechanical drawings, electrical/electronic schematics, wiring diagrams, cable routes and switching arrangements and building details
Work simulated activities: to use symbols representing Electrotechnology circuit components and equipment to locate and indicate cable routes and control arrangements
It is expected that students would require approximately 20% of course hours to be allocated for independent study to do project research, design, construction, testing and problem solving activities.
