Course Description

This unit covers finding and repairing faults in measuring and analysis systems. It encompasses working safely, reading circuit diagrams and device specifications, applying logical fault finding procedures, conducting repairs and completing the necessary service 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 other conditions may apply in some States and Territories subject to regulations related to electrical work.

Practice in the workplace and during training is also subject to regulations directly related to occupational health and safety and where applicable contracts of training such as apprenticeships.
