Our industry-leading Solar Training package has been designed to train you in the four units that are fundamental for successfully designing, installing, and commissioning solar panels.

UEERE0054 - Conduct site survey for grid-connected photovoltaic and battery storage systems

This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to complete site surveys for grid-connected photovoltaic and battery storage systems.

It includes safe work practices, site inspection processes and procedures, service provider responsibilities, consulting with qualified people to assess client energy demand requirements and assessing grid-connected equipment options to meet client requirements and site conditions. It also covers provision of advice to the client on battery storage standards, codes of practices, government/utilities incentive schemes, and information related to the installation of a grid-connected photovoltaic and battery storage systems.

No prerequisites for this unit

UEERE0061 - Design grid-connected photovoltaic power supply systems

This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to design grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) power supply systems.

It includes designing grid-connected PV power supply system, following design briefs, utilising data/information from site survey to determine design requirements, ensuring safety and performance standards and functional requirements are met, documenting and obtaining approval for design.

This unit is appropriate for Licenced Electricians or Electrical Engineers with responsibility for designing grid-connected photovoltaic power supply systems.

Licensing, legislative or certification requirements that apply to this unit may differ between jurisdictions and system types. They should be checked prior to commencing this unit.

Pre-requisite Unit
UEERE0054 Conduct site survey for grid-connected photovoltaic and battery storage systems

and

UEEEL0039 Design, install and verify compliance and functionality of general electrical installations

or

UEERE0051 Apply electrical principles to renewable energy design

UEERE0080 - Install photovoltaic power conversion equipment to grid

This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to install and commission photovoltaic (PV) power conversion equipment (PCE) to grid.

It includes working safely to industry installation standards, installing components in accordance with design, placing and securing system components accurately, making required circuit connections, testing and commissioning the installation and completing the necessary installation documentation.

The skills and knowledge described in this unit require a licence or permit to practice in the workplace where work is carried out on electrical installations, which are designed to operate at voltages greater than 50 volt (V) alternating current (a.c.) or 120 V direct current (d.c.).

Competency development activities in this unit are subject to regulations directly related to licensing. Where a licence or permit to practice is not held, a relevant contract of training, such as an Australian Apprenticeship, is required.

Additional and/or other conditions may apply in some jurisdictions subject to regulations related to electrical work. Practice in the workplace and during training is also subject to work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS) regulations.

Pre-requisite Unit
UEEEL0012 Install low voltage wiring, appliances, switchgear and associated accessories

UEERE0054 Conduct site survey for grid-connected photovoltaic and battery storage systems

UEERE0081 - Install photovoltaic systems to power conversion equipment

This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to install and commission a photovoltaic (PV) power system to power conversion equipment (PCE).

It includes working safely to industry installation standards, matching PV components specified for a given location, placing and securing system components accurately, making required circuit connections and completing the necessary installation documentation.

The skills and knowledge described in this unit require a licence or permit to practice in the workplace where work is carried out on electrical installations, which are designed to operate at voltages greater than 50 volt (V) alternating current (a.c.) or 120 V direct current (d.c.).
