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!

ICTCBL332 - Locate, identify and rectify copper cable faults

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

Prepare for fault- finding activity

  1. Determine, from documentation or discussion with appropriate personnel, work to be undertaken, including reported fault location
  2. Access site according to workplace and/or enterprise procedures
  3. Identify existing and potential site hazards, assess risks and implement risk control measures
  4. Prepare testing in consultation with others affected by the proposed work and sequence work appropriately
  5. Obtain required materials for testing, reporting and rectification work according to enterprise procedures and job/work ticket requirements
  6. Obtain required tools, equipment and testing devices according to enterprise procedures and check for correct operation and safety

Conduct activities to test and locate cable faults

  1. Establish nature of fault through analysis of source, history and available information
  2. Select and use appropriate test equipment to locate, diagnose and analyse fault
  3. Conduct tests according to selected test equipment operating instructions and safety requirements, and ensure diagnostic process aligns to customer service requirements
  4. Identify and test for fault efficiently and sustainably
  5. Evaluate test results to determine cause of fault/s using appropriate methods and processes

Rectify fault

  1. Carry out work health and safety (WHS) activities prior to entering a pit or manhole and protect underground assets prior to excavation
  2. Physically locate fault position in a length of cable or buried joint
  3. Rectify fault or escalate to appropriate level
  4. Discuss and document established methods for dealing with unexpected situations with appropriate personnel
  5. Confirm that current standard of performance for copper cables will be viable after fault remediation work
  6. Confirm integrity of repaired fault using appropriate carrier testing processes
