Student Guide for Written Knowledge AssessmentOverview of AssessmentThis is a written assessment task you will be assess on your knowledge of testing and repairing basic electrical circuits. The topics that will be covered in the assessment are: Prepare to test basic electrical circuit Test circuit Repair and check circuit Complete work processes This assessment will ensure that the elements, performance criteria, performance evidence and knowledge evidence required, and conditions are adhered to demonstrate competency in this unit assessment task. Read the assessment carefully before commencing.Your Assessor will use the assessment criteria in this document and will provide feedback / comment. You MUST answer all the questions in the assessment tasks in your own words and own handwriting. This is an “Open Book” assessment, and students can use the resources listed in the “Resources Required” section below.Task/s to be assessedTo complete this written assessment, you will need to answer the 70 questions comprising of Multiple Choice, True and False, Fill-in the Gap and Short Answer questions.Time allowedOn average, the Assessment should take 4 – 6 hours to complete.LocationThis theory assessment will be completed in a classroom under the supervision of a trainer/assessor.Decision making rulesTo receive a ‘satisfactory’ outcome for this assessment, students MUST successfully answer all questions. If a student achieves less than 100%, they can reattempt the assessment after further study has taken place. Students who cannot achieve a minimum of 100% you will not have satisfactorily completed this assessment Your assessor will be looking for the following in this assessment task: – Methods to locate and interpret information required to test and repair basic electrical circuits, including:Technical information, including:Circuit typesCircuit diagrams Circuit symbolsManufacturer specifications and procedures or equivalent documentationWorkplace procedures required to test and repair basic electrical circuits, including:Establishing serviceability of tools and equipmentDocumentation proceduresHousekeeping procedures, including:Examination of tools and equipmentStorage of equipmentIdentification, tagging and isolation of faulty equipmentDisposal of excess materialsRecycling proceduresWorkplace health and safety (WHS) requirements relating to testing and repairing basic electrical circuits, including procedures for:Using specialised tools and equipmentSelecting and using personal protective equipment (PPE)Identifying hazards and controlling risks associated with wearing jewellery while working around electrical systemsEnvironmental procedures relating to testing and repairing basic electrical circuitsBasic theory and principles of automotive electrical systems, including:CurrentAlternating current (AC)Direct current (DC)VoltageResistance PowerOhm’s lawIdentification and operation of the following electrical circuits: Series circuitsParallel circuitsSeries parallel circuitsKey features of basic electrical circuit components, including:Cable types, including:Cable sizes Current carrying capacityCircuit protection devicesSwitchesRelaysAutomotive globesProcedures for using and operating electrical test equipment, including:Digital multimetersTest lights suitable for circuit testing, including resistive and light emitting diode (LED)Test probes suitable for testing circuit continuityFused test leadCommon types of faults, including:Open circuitsHigh resistance circuitsShort circuitsDamaged insulationFrayed wiresBurnt wiringWater and moisture ingressConnector damageTerminal damageTesting procedures for electrical systems, including:Accessing electrical terminals and using test probes without damaging connectors, fuse holders or wiringElectrical measuring and testing procedures, including:Electrical resistance checksOpen and short circuit testsVoltage drop testsCurrent flow testsVisual testing procedures, including:Component moisture ingressConnector damageRepair procedures for electrical circuits, including:Wire soldering proceduresTerminal crimping proceduresReplacing male and female terminals in a connector housingConnector removal and replacement proceduresBasic electrical components removal and replacement proceduresPost-repair testing procedures, including:Confirming that electrical system is operating to manufacturer specifications Confirming that no other problems are present as a result of the repairAssessment conditionsCompetency is to be assessed in the workplace or a simulated environment that accurately reflects performance in a real workplace setting. Assessment MUST include direct observation of tasks. Where assessment of competency includes third-party evidence, individuals MUST provide evidence that links them to the basic electrical circuits they have tested and repaired, e.g. repair orders. Assessors MUST verify performance evidence through questioning on skills and knowledge to ensure correct interpretation and application. The following resources MUST be made available: Automotive repair workplace or simulated workplaceWorkplace instructionsManufacturer electrical system specificationsVehicle or machinery with faults in the basic electrical circuits specified in the performance evidenceElectrical test equipment to test basic electrical circuits and componentsConsumable materials relevant to repairing basic electrical circuits and components, including connectors, terminals, wire, electrical tape and heat shrink sleevingElectrical repair tools, equipment and materials relating to basic electrical circuits and components. Assessors of this unit MUST satisfy the requirements for assessors in applicable vocational education and training legislation, frameworks and/or standards.Resources requiredLearning Resources available to students include: Automotive Technology (A System Approach) 7th Edition – Chapters 2, 5, 6, 7, 15, 16 & 20Websites – Ohm’s law calculator http://www.sengpielaudio.com/calculator-ohmslaw.htm Fluke 87 Multimeter http://media.fluke.com/documents/80v_____umeng0200.pdf Trainer HandoutsResults/Re-assessmentThe Assessor will grade the assessment and record the result on the front page of this document (S) – Satisfactory if all observable behaviours are correct and (NS) not satisfactory if any areas are left incorrectFeedback will be provided on either resultWhere a student receives a ‘NS – Not Satisfactory’ result, the assessor will discuss the area of the non-compliant observable behaviour and an opportunity given for re-assessment. This may be through direct observation or a different method of assessment e.g. verbal/oral questioning, problem solving exercise. If the outcome is again not satisfactory the student result will be deemed (NYC) not yet competent. Additional feedback will be given, and a time agreed upon for further assessment after additional training and skills practice has taken place, this information will be recorded, dated and signed in the re-assessment area on the last page of this documentWhere all the assessment tasks have been graded (S) Satisfactory, the student will be deemed C – Competent for the practical component and the result recorded and signed in the area indicated on the last page of this documentReasonable AdjustmentIf the participant is unable to undertake the written assessment as designed, an interview (verbal questioning) may be used as an alternate approach.AURETR112 Testing and repair basic electrical circuits
