Elements and Performance Criteria
- Determine scope of evaluation
- Confirm and apply safe electrical working practice
- Review the currents and voltages present in the microcontroller applications and check for regulatory requirements and dangerous high currents and voltages, including effects on humans and on application equipment and components
- Identify work health and safety (WHS) and regulatory requirements with particular emphasis on automation safety, codes of practice, standards, risk management and organisational procedures
- Identify software techniques and graphics required for evaluation
- Identify stakeholders to be consulted on evaluation tasks
- Identify sources of technical and professional assistance
- Investigate sustainability implications of microcontroller applications
