Title
Develop a plan for and manage an electrical engineering project
Level
5
Purpose
Credits
20
This unit standard is intended for use in the training and
assessment of electricians beyond trade level who are required
to develop, implement, manage, and monitor a plan for a
significant electrical engineering project and evaluate the
success of the project.
People credited with this unit standard are able to:
–
develop an electrical engineering project plan;
–
implement, manage, and monitor an electrical engineering
project based on the plan; and
–
evaluate an electrical engineering project plan outcome.

Explanatory notes
1
This unit standard has been developed for learning and assessment on-job.
2
Achievement of this unit standard does not by itself imply that trainees may legally
perform prescribed electrical work in their own right. Until trainees themselves are
registered and licensed under the Electricity Act 1992, they are assisting, and must
work under the supervision of a Supervisor of Electrical Work when carrying out
prescribed electrical work. If the prescribed electrical work in question is carried out
for reward the Supervisor of Electrical Work must hold a valid practising licence.

Definitions
Industry practice – those practices that competent practitioners within the industry
recognise as current industry best practice.
Safe and sound practice relating to the installation of electrical equipment is defined
in AS/NZS 3000:2007.
Significant electrical installations – industrial, commercial, residential, or domestic
involving a minimum of: lighting and power subcircuits, main switchboard, mains
supply, and earthing system and that may require inspection by a registered
electrical inspector.
5
The project must be approved by an academic supervisor from a recognised tertiary
training establishment with recognised expertise in electrotechnology, and The Skills
Organisation.
6
The evaluation must include a written report which is accurate, in a style and
language that meets the client organisation’s needs, and meets presentation
standards generally accepted for such documentation. Report layout will include:
summary, introduction, literature review, materials and methods, results, discussion,
conclusions and must meet the requirements of the organisation supervising the
project.
7
Evidence is required for a significant electrical installation comprising four or more
systems.
8
All activities must comply with: any policies, procedures, and requirements of the
organisations involved; the standards of relevant professional bodies; and any
relevant legislative and/or regulatory requirements including the Electricity Act 1992,
Electricity (Safety) Regulations 2010, and AS/NZS 3000:2007.
9
It is expected that the project will involve a wide range of technical skills encountered
in the electrical industry and is expected to be carried out over a period of at least
three months. Examples of a typical project could include – multi-site buildings, block
of flats, factory installation, multi-machine installation or upgrade, or automation
project.

Range
Demonstration of safe working practices and installation in accordance with safe and
sound practice are essential components of assessment of this unit standard and
must comply with the Health and Safety in Employment Act 1992.

Please note
Providers must be granted consent to assess against standards (accredited) by NZQA,
before they can report credits from assessment against unit standards or deliver courses
of study leading to that assessment.

Industry Training Organisations must be granted consent to assess against standards by
NZQA before they can register credits from assessment against unit standards.
Providers and Industry Training Organisations, which have been granted consent and
which are assessing against unit standards must engage with the moderation system that
applies to those standards.
Requirements for consent to assess and an outline of the moderation system that applies
to this standard are outlined in the Consent and Moderation Requirements (CMR). The
CMR also includes useful information about special requirements for organisations wishing
to develop education and training programmes, such as minimum qualifications for tutors
and assessors, and special resource requirements.
