Tips for gathering evidence to demonstrate your skills

The important thing to remember when gathering evidence is that the more evidence the better - that is, the more evidence you gather to demonstrate your skills, the more confident an assessor can be that you have learned the skills not just at one point in time, but are continuing to apply and develop those skills (as opposed to just learning for the test!). Furthermore, one piece of evidence that you collect will not usualy demonstrate all the required criteria for a unit of competency, whereas multiple overlapping pieces of evidence will usually do the trick!

ICTCBL241 - Terminate metallic conductor customer cable

What evidence can you provide to prove your understanding of each of the following citeria?

Prepare cable termination

  1. Access site according to customer and worksite requirements
  2. Prepare for cable terminating work according to regulatory environment, cabling environment, cable type, cable identification, termination systems, earthing and protection, and records
  3. Select correct termination tools and materials for installation
  4. Notify appropriate personnel of identified safety hazards at cabling worksite
  5. Identify remote power feeding services that operate at above telecommunications network voltage (TNV) inside customer premises
  6. Contact customer where risks with remote power feed are identified
  7. Remove all contaminants from worksite that may adversely affect termination and prepare worksite to ensure adequate visibility to minimise errors and to reduce eye strain
  8. Design cable and block location within frame, with capacity for expansion where possible
  9. Segregate incoming and outgoing cables for ease of access and to minimise overlaying and backtracking of cable

Terminate cable

  1. Remove cable sheath to allow for conductor length and installation requirements
  2. Fan out cable pair groups to manufacturer coding system to ensure correct terminating sequence and unique identification as required
  3. Install over-voltage protection devices to all cables with metallic component as required
  4. Install terminating modules to frame according to manufacturer specifications
  5. Fan cable pairs neatly to termination equipment to facilitate accurate termination
  6. Terminate cable using correct tool, according to work health and safety (WHS) and environmental requirements, and manufacturer specifications
  7. Earth cable shield to manufacturer specifications and industry standards
