Assessmen  methods

 

(a) Recommendation

(b) Description

         N/A

 

•    The assessment are based on combination of paper exams, interviewing, and practical demonstrations depending on the assessors’ judgement.

•    Competition should be assessed in the workplace or work environment simulated using tools and equipment specified in the maintenance documentation. It is also expected that the general purpose tools and test equipment found in most routine situations would be used where appropriate. 

•    The application of the test procedures should clearly indicate the knowledge of system operation, the relationship of the individual components and linkages with other systems (if applicable) within the limits of the aircraft / guidance system troubleshooting before taking any action. The work plan should take into account the applicable safety requirements and quality in accordance with industry and regulatory standards. 

•    The following evaluation conditions represent the requirements of regulators and stakeholders maintenance and must be strictly observed.

•    A person can not be assessed as competent until they can demonstrate to the satisfaction of the assessor workplace relevant elements and performance criteria of competence unit is carried out under routine monitoring in power looms, cables and connecting hardware, and in each of the following systems and at least one (1) replaceable unit main component / line (LRU) in each case: power generation systems, regulation and distribution of DC piston engine and ignition engine and gas turbine starting systems (gas turbine may be omitted if not applicable to the company) DC electrical systems, such as fins, including motors and actuators related aircraft lighting aircraft main battery (competition can be demonstrated by performing a battery check). competencies removal and installation of components must be demonstrated with at least one (1) component of each of: DC generators and generators alternator / rectifier, and components of control systems and related distribution single generator.
