Suitability

This course is ideal for tradespeople and technicians who need the skills and knowledge to safely disconnect and reconnect electrical equipment connected to low-voltage (LV) installation wiring as part of their regular or incidental job duties.

It suits those whose work involves preparing, inspecting, testing, and maintaining LV equipment such as motors, appliances, and water heaters — ensuring safe operation, fault identification, and compliance with reporting standards.

The course is particularly relevant for:

  • Licensed tradespeople (e.g., plumbers, mechanics, HVAC technicians, and fitters) who work with electrical components but are not qualified electricians.

  • Maintenance and service technicians required to perform restricted electrical tasks incidental to their main role.

  • Apprentices or trainees in trades that involve plant or equipment operating above 50V AC or 120V DC, where a restricted electrical licence may be required.

Participants should be aware that licensing and regulatory requirements may vary between states and territories. It is essential to check local WHS/OHS and electrical licensing regulations before undertaking this unit.
