Summary

 

Unit standards 10552, 10553, 20065, and 20066 were reviewed and reinstated as a result of the review of the National Certificate in Electricity Supply (Cable Jointer - Specialist) (Level 5) [Ref: 1108].  Unfortunately the standards were not originally reviewed in conjunction with this qualification as they should have been, but reviewed in isolation and expired due to low usage.  However, although the qualification and the standards are little used, the review of the qualification determined that it was important it remained available to industry and that the expiry of the standards should not have been instigated.  The standards were therefore reinstated in order that the qualification may remain available to industry.

 

Unit standards 10551, 20064, 20067 and 20068 were revised as part as a result of the review of the National Certificate in Electricity Supply (Cable Jointer - Specialist) (Level 5) [Ref: 1108].

 

Main changes

 

The standards were recently reviewed but as a result of the review of this qualification it became apparent that further amendment was required to reflect the fact that voltage levels worked on have risen, and to ensure that people achieving the standards are experienced working on multicore cables.

 

·      Minor changes to titles to specify the voltage range cable jointers may work on.

·      Addition of special note clarifying that work experience must be gained on multicore cables.

 

Impact on registered qualifications

 

Key to type of impact

Affected

The qualification lists a reviewed classification (domain or subfield) in an elective set

The qualification lists a standard that has changes to level or credits

The qualification lists a C or D category standard

Not materially affected

The qualification lists a standard that has a new title

The qualification lists a standard that has a new classification

 

The following Electricity Supply Industry Training Organisation qualifications were not materially impacted by the outcome of this revision, and will be updated when they are reviewed in 2010 [Ref: 1108] and 2011 [Ref: 0870].
