Elements and Performance Criteria

1. Plan for fault finding and rectification in power system substation environment
   • Work schedules, construction plans, drawings, workplace procedures and material lists are obtained and analysed
2. Job requirements and workplace procedures are identified and communicated with relevant personnel
3. Hazards are identified, work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS)risks assessed and control measures prioritised, implemented and monitored in accordance with workplace procedures
4. Work is prioritised and sequenced for completion within acceptable timeframes following consultation with relevant personnel and in accordance with workplace procedures
5. Risk control measures are identified, prioritised, implemented and evaluated against the work schedule
6. Equipment, tools and personal protective equipment (PPE) required for work are identified, obtained and confirmed in working order
7. Liaison and communication issues with authorised personnel, authorities, clients and land owners are resolved to facilitate work, as required
8. Personnel participating in work are fully briefed and responsibilities confirmed in accordance with workplace procedures
9. Worksite is prepared to minimise risk, damage to property, commerce and individuals in accordance with workplace procedures
10. Carry out fault finding within the substation environment
    • WHS/OHS, sustainable energy and environmental principles and practices are monitored and actioned to reduce incidents of accidents in accordance with workplace procedures
11. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), rescue from live electrical apparatus and other related safety procedures are in place in accordance with job requirements and/or workplace procedures
12. Safe working documentation is acquired and requirements completed in accordance with workplace procedures
13. Requirements for lifting, climbing, working at heights, confined spaces and use of power tools/equipment are followed in accordance with workplace procedures
14. Hazard warnings and safety signs are recognised and hazards and assessed WHS/OHS risks are reported to immediate authorised personnel for directions/preventative actions taken in accordance with workplace procedures
15. Faults in power system substation are diagnosed and rectified to ensure completion in agreed timeframes, to quality standards and with minimum waste in accordance with workplace procedures
16. Faults are located, identified and affected circuits isolated in accordance with the work schedules, job requirements and workplace procedures
17. Faults in power system substation control circuits are rectified in an agreed timeframe and to workplace quality standards with a minimum of waste
18. Unplanned events in the diagnosis and analysis of faults are responded to in accordance with workplace procedures
19. Solutions to non-routine problems are identified and actioned using acquired essential knowledge and associated skills in accordance with requirements
20. Circuit functions are restored in accordance with work schedules, job requirements and workplace procedures
21. Quality checks of work are undertaken in accordance with industry standards and workplace procedures
22. Complete fault finding within the substation environment
    • Completed work is checked against work schedule, construction plans and drawings for compliance and anomalies are reported in accordance with workplace procedures
23. Safe working documentation is surrendered, and equipment made ready for service in accordance with workplace procedures
24. Worksite is cleaned and confirmed safe in accordance with workplace procedures
25. Tools, equipment and surplus resources and materials are, where appropriate, cleaned, checked and returned to storage in accordance with workplace procedures
26. Work records, reports and/or documentation are completed in accordance with workplace procedures
