This unit of competency defines the skills and knowledge required to set up and assemble pendulum clocks on site. It also covers testing and making running adjustments to ensure correct function and performance and applies to any clock repairer or vendor required to install, set up and test pendulum clocks on site, including in domestic residences and commercial buildings.

The most common application is usually a set-up and installation of new (long-case, wall or shelf) clocks or a set-up and installation after the return of serviced clocks to a customer's premises.

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