Apply safe technical work practices for cabling registration when configuring ADSL circuits

Formats and tools

Unit Description
Reconstruct the unit from the xml and display it as an HTML page.
Assessment Tool
an assessor resource that builds a framework for writing an assessment tool
Assessment Template
generate a spreadsheet for marking this unit in a classroom environment. Put student names in the top row and check them off as they demonstrate competenece for each of the unit's elements and performance criteria.
Assessment Matrix
a slightly different format than the assessment template. A spreadsheet with unit names, elements and performance criteria in separate columns. Put assessment names in column headings to track which performance criteria each one covers. Good for ensuring that you've covered every one of the performance criteria with your assessment instrument (all assessement tools together).
Wiki Markup
mark up the unit in a wiki markup codes, ready to copy and paste into a wiki page. The output will work in most wikis but is designed to work particularly well as a Wikiversity learning project.
Evidence Guide
create an evidence guide for workplace assessment and RPL applicants
Competency Mapping Template
Unit of Competency Mapping – Information for Teachers/Assessors – Information for Learners. A template for developing assessments for a unit, which will help you to create valid, fair and reliable assessments for the unit, ready to give to trainers and students
Observation Checklist
create an observation checklist for workplace assessment and RPL applicants. This is similar to the evidence guide above, but a little shorter and friendlier on your printer. You will also need to create a seperate Assessor Marking Guide for guidelines on gathering evidence and a list of key points for each activity observed using the unit's range statement, required skills and evidence required (see the unit's html page for details)

Self Assessment Survey
A form for students to assess thier current skill levels against each of the unit's performance criteria. Cut and paste into a web document or print and distribute in hard copy.
Moodle Outcomes
Create a csv file of the unit's performance criteria to import into a moodle course as outcomes, ready to associate with each of your assignments. Here's a quick 'how to' for importing these into moodle 2.x

Elements and Performance Criteria

1. Build and test DC and AC circuits and telephone earthing

1.1 Identify any hazards and occupational health and safety (OHS) issues for a safe work site and notify appropriate personnel

1.2 Connect a series and a parallel DC and AC circuit configuration following safe work practices

1.3 Choose the appropriate test equipment and measure the values of electrical quantities of the circuits

1.4 Use calculations to verify the measured values of the electrical quantities in a series and in a parallel circuit configuration

1.5 Compare measured values to calculated values and determine the reasons for any variations

1.6 Evaluate results and determine the probable faults if relevant

1.7 Measure voltages present on a telephone line and compare to exchange battery voltage

1.8 Measure resistance to earth, ensuring an electrical earth in a telecommunications installation

2. Configure a safe ADSL circuit configuration with Mode 3 connection

2.1 Determine the effects of bandwidth, frequency and attenuation on xDSL circuits as used for broadband customer access

2.2 Design and configure an ADSL circuit from network boundary through to Mode 3 socket for an alarm system connected to a monitoring station

2.3 Configure connection to ensure that an ADSL circuit is not disconnected for safety reasons when an alarm activation in conjunction with a Mode 3 socket disconnects the plain old telephone service (POTS) circuit

2.4 Use a level 3 tester to verify correct termination and installation practices on a digital transmission line

3. Diagnose and rectify faults

3.1 Determine urgency and impact of faults and required response timeframe for clearance

3.2 Identify type of fault and determine most probable causes of fault from data and historical trends where available

3.3 Select tools and test equipment relevant to the system and type of fault

3.4 Diagnose fault in a methodical and safe manner using suitable fault-finding technique

3.5 Isolate fault progressively to remove likely variables from diagnostic

3.6 Determine options to rectify the fault and present to customer for decision on rectification

3.7 Document test methods and results and file with other system installation records

4. Alter existing services

4.1 Identify existing and proposed cable systems for altering services to an existing installation

4.2 Plan alterations to cause minimal disruption to ongoing client activity

4.3 Use appropriate tools to safely terminate telecommunications cables and outlets

4.4 Identify and rectify any cable fault

4.5 Carry out alterations in a safe manner and according to both mandatory and recommended industry standards

4.6 Identify risks posed by contact with remote power feeding services

4.7 Test alteration and obtain sign-off from customer
