Solve electrical-based telecommunications circuitry and cabling problems

Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: May 2024


This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to solve electrical-based problems encountered in analog and digital signal equipment, signal cabling and wireless networking in the telecommunications sector.

It applies to technicians who undertake a range of functions requiring advanced techniques in testing, fault-finding and rectification for electrical circuitry common to telecommunications signal transmission and operation. These technicians may work in domestic, commercial or industrial situations.

No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

You may want to include more information here about the target group and the purpose of the assessments (eg formative, summative, recognition)

Submission Requirements

(add new lines for each of the assessment tasks)


Assessment Tasks

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.
Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.

Observation Checklist
