Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to undertake monitoring and operation of screen based Supervisory, Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems.SCADA is acontrol systemthat uses computers, networked data communications andgraphic interfaces. It may also use other peripheral devices to interface with process plant and/or machinery in power generation facilities.Competency in this unit requires the ability to operate SCADA, monitor and interpret information andenhance screen display. Individuals will, in general, work under supervision, in a power generation facility as an operator.Power generation plant operators are typically trained and authorised to isolate, prepare plant and issue permits to work.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.Note: Workplace practiceThe application of the skills and knowledge described in this unit may require a licence or training permit to practice in the workplace where work is carried out on gas and electrical installations. Additional conditions may apply under state and territory legislative and regulatory licensing requirements.
