Course Description

This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to determine correct operation of direct current (d.c.) machines and provide solutions as they apply to electrical installations and equipment.

It includes working safely, the use of testing and measuring devices, and providing solutions derived from measurements and calculations to predictable problems in d.c. machines.

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 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 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.

Overview of Assessment

The assessment is conducted in both the theoretical and practical aspects of the course, following the performance criteria set in the National Training Package. 
Assessment methods may encompass a variety of approaches, including written and oral activities, as well as the demonstration of practical skills aligned with 
relevant industry standards. Participants should be aware that they may be asked to personally demonstrate their assessment activities to their teacher or assessor. 
Feedback will be consistently provided throughout the course.To successfully complete this course, you will be required to demonstrate competency in each assessment 
task within this unit. Full assessment details will be provided and can be found on CANVAS.
