The Electricity Supply Industry Training Organisation has completed the revision and review of the unit standards listed above.
Date new versions published October 2010
Planned review date December 2013
Summary
Standards 26019 and 26020 were revised to provide an updated pathway covering power system protection that replaced the existing pathway and to indicate that standard 21230 was only replaced by standard 26020, not a combination of standards 26019 and 26020. Standard 19481 from the existing protection pathway was reviewed and it was determined that it was no longer required. Industry viewed revised standard 26019 as a recommended alternative to standard 19481. These changes were made in conjunction with a review of the National Certificate in Electricity Supply (Power Technician) (Level 5) [Ref: 1260], and companies in both the Network and Generation sector were extensively consulted during the review.
Main changes resulting from revision
Replacement information was corrected on unit standards 26019 and 26020 and entry information was updated on unit standard 26020.
Main changes resulting from review
Unit standard 19481 was designated expiring and will not be replaced.
The category D unit standard will expire at the end of December 2012
