Don’t forget all tasks have to be carried out on two separate occasions.
Each picture will need a brief write-up to explain what criteria is being covered.
Unit 318
- Outcome 1 Assessment Criteria 1
[Picture of you carrying out safe isolation]
- Outcome 1 Assessment Criteria 2
[Picture of you putting up barriers in the
area that you are going to be working]
- Outcome 1 Assessment Criteria 3
[Picture of you putting up warning signs around the work area]
- Outcome 1 Assessment Criteria 4
[Picture of you visually inspecting a DB or
Consumer unit prior to starting work]
- Outcome 2 Assessment Criteria 1
[Picture of you receiving a list of faults you have to
repair from your boss or supervisor. OR an email
from your boss to you with all faults outlined]
- Outcome 2 Assessment Criteria 2
[Picture of you looking at a job specification
whilst looking at planning a job]
- Outcome 2 Assessment Criteria 3
[Picture of you speaking to a colleague that needs to be aware of
what you are doing and the disruption it may cause]
[Picture of you talking speaking to a client and
informing them of wat you are doing and what
disruption it may cause to them]
- Outcome 2 Assessment Criteria 4
[Picture of you visually inspecting a DB or
Consumer unit prior to starting work]
- Outcome 2 Assessment Criteria 5
Perform suitable diagnostic tests on the installed electrotechnical systems to successfully identifyfaults
[Picture of you with a voltage indicator on a dead supply]
[Picture of you using a clamp on ammeter to
identify a circuit that is drawing to much current]
[Picture of you performing an Insulation Resistance
test to find the fault that is causing the short circuit
or earth fault]
- Transient voltage.
[Write up of what a transient voltage is and what it does to electrical components. Also include how you would identify this fault (with voltage continuity meter but it would have to be while the fault was happening)]
- Outcome 2 Assessment Criteria 5
Perform suitable diagnostic tests on the installed electrotechnical systems to successfully identifyfaults
[Picture of you using a voltage indicator on a 3 phase supply.
(write up of how 1 or 2 phases have failed)]
[Picture of you using a phase rotation instrument
showing an incorrect rotation (must be a 3 phase supply)]
[Picture of you performing a continuity test (R1+R2)
on a circuit to try and find the high resistance joint]
[Picture of you performing voltage test on a
component that is no longer working]
- Outcome 2 Assessment Criteria 6
Useappropriate methodsfor locating faults on electrical systems and equipment
[This point will require several pictures. While finding a fault you will have to perform a test
at the DB, then start to split the circuit. Take a picture every time you split the circuit until
you find the fault]
[Picture of you wearing suitable PPE while performing tests.
Rubber gloves while performing live tests]
[Picture of you looking at information that may help you find
a fault (report of what the fault is, an email from your boss
outlining the fault, speaking to a client about what is happening)]
- Outcome 2 Assessment Criteria 7
Useappropriate tools and instrumentscorrectly to complete fault diagnosis work
[Picture of you using a voltage indicator]
[Picture of you using a low resistance ohm meter]
[Picture of you using an insulation resistance tester]
[Picture of you using an earth loop impedance tester]
[Picture of you using an prospective fault current tester]
[Picture of you using an RCD meter]
[Picture of you using a clamp on ammeter]
[Picture of you using a phase rotation meter]
- Outcome 2 Assessment Criteria 8
[Picture of you visually inspecting test equipment and the
correct leads for the meter along with Calibration Certificates]
- Outcome 3 Assessment Criteria 1
Confirm appropriate repairs, removals and replacements and their implications with relevant people including:
[Picture of you showing a colleague a piece of
equipment you have replaced because it was faulty]
[Picture of you showing a customer or client a piece
of equipment you have replaced because it was faulty]
[Picture of you showing a representative of another trade a
piece of equipment you have replaced because it was faulty]
- Outcome 3 Assessment Criteria 2
[Picture of you repairing a fault that you have found]
- Outcome 3 Assessment Criteria 3
Perform the removal and replacement of components and associated equipment from electrotechnical systems to ensure ease of access to enable future maintenance in accordance with:
- Relevant regulations
[Picture of you reading BS:7671 while performing fault repair work]
[Picture of you reading the manufactures instructions to
ensure that the new equipment you have fitted is correct]
[Picture of you disposing of waste that have generated.
Write up of how this complies with your organisational procedures]
- Outcome 3 Assessment Criteria 4
[If you cannot repair a fault immediately then you must
leave it in asafe condition. Take a picture of you having
left a fault in a safe condition]
- Outcome 3 Assessment Criteria 5
[Picture of you checking that a lighting switch
functions correctly after a test on the circuit]
- Outcome 3 Assessment Criteria 6
Record test results and other appropriate information regarding the fault correction work clearly and accurately and report to relevant people, such as:
• Other workers/colleagues.
[Picture of you completing test sheets.][Picture of you explaining to colleagues
what you have done and you showing them
relevant paperwork]
• Customers/clients.
[Picture of you completing test sheets.][Picture of you explaining to customers or
clients what you have done and you showing them relevant paperwork]
• Representatives of other services.
[Picture of you completing test sheets.] [Picture of you explaining to other trades
what you have done and you showing them
relevant paperwork]
Appropriate PPE must be worn at all times.
Make sure you can be identified in all photos (where relevant).
