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.
Learn to disconnect and reconnect water heating systems safely, ensuring compliance with electrical regulations and performing necessary testing to verify proper functionality.
Develop the skills to handle electrical appliances safely — including preparation, disconnection, reconnection, and fault diagnosis — to ensure reliability and efficiency.
Gain hands-on skills in working with electric motors, including safe disconnection, reconnection, testing, and diagnosing common electrical faults.
