KHU-ELT-0267

This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to service electrical systems and equipment in underground and open-cut mines. It includes working safely, planning to maintain mining electrical systems and equipment, applying logical fault diagnosis procedures, following fault rectification workplace procedures and maintaining the service 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, may be required. Additional
