UETTDRCJ28 – Joint and maintain energised Low Voltage underground polymeric cables
Description
This course is designed to train individuals who are required to hold a current certificate for the specified work.
This course has been tailored based on industry best-practice and to be in accordance with the relevant standards and legislations.
The course will be delivered by an experienced industry professional, bringing a depth of knowledge and experience to the participant.
Through the completion of this course learners will acquire the skills and knowledge required to joint and maintain energised low voltage (LV) underground polymeric cables in the electricity supply industry (ESI). The course passes the skills of cable jointing and terminating energised cables using a range of specialised live working equipment, tools and devices, issuing and/or accepting electrical access permits and/or relevant working documentation, and undertaking authorised cable testing procedures. The course also passes the skill to safely perform the pre-commissioning and/or re-commissioning tests and updating system data/maintenance records.

Course aim
The course is designed to provide the learner with the knowledge and skills to enable them to safely joint and maintain energised low voltage underground polymeric cables.
Target learner group
The target participants for this course are employees currently working within the Australian Electricity Supply Industry. This includes employees of network asset owners, contractors and sub-contractors in electricity Generation, Transmission and Distribution.
Those who work on the network must maintain currency of skills and competency in a range of safety and technical competencies. Relevant safety related training programs are often mandated by regulation or industry agreements and documented in state codes of practice.
Most participants will be licensed and trade qualified or hold a Certificate in a related technical discipline. In addition to trade qualifications, the participant groups will have completed a range of electrical and plant safety related training programs related to the roles they hold. Due to the significant safety risks in the industry these employees work within highly proceduralised workplaces with mature workplace safety systems.
Workers in the industry are required to regularly complete workplace safety risk assessment and work planning documentation, and therefore bring a solid foundational understanding of risk assessment and workplace safety documentation concepts and practices to the program.
Learning activities
Delivery includes:
- Trainer led classroom presentations
- Theory assessment
- Workshop practical exercises and assessment
Learning outcomes
On successful completion of the course a participant will be able to:
