Course Description
This unit covers commissioning of process control systems. It encompasses working safely and with others, complying with requirements, applying knowledge of process and control components, pre-commissioning tests, following start up procedures, checking and adjusting components and controls to ensure efficient and safe operation and completing commissioning documentation.
The skills and knowledge described in this unit do not require a license to practice in the workplace provided equipment is not connected to installation wiring at voltage above 50 V a.c. or 120 V d.c. However, practice in this unit is subject to regulations directly related to occupational health and safety and where applicable contracts of training such as apprenticeships.
