Advanced Diploma of Engineering – Electrical
OVERVIEW
COURSE OBJECTIVES
- To develop engineering specification and design briefs for electrical engineering projects
- To broaden knowledge in understanding how processing plant architectures are put together
- To write up plant control philosophy and project engineering specification
- To design explosion-protected electrical systems and installations – gas/ dust atmospheres/ pressurization/ coal mining
- To plan and manage large electrical projects including contract variations, team effectiveness and facilitating continuous improvements
- To solve problems in complex multiple path and polyphase power circuits
- To solve electro-technology engineering problems using material science and physics
- To open more doors for you in areas of electrical instrumentation and control system engineering and hazardous area technical authority managing projects and compliance in hazardous areas to local regulations and national standards.
FULL QUALIFICATION – UEE62120 – ADVANCED DIPLOMA OF ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY – ELECTRICAL AND UEE50420 – DIPLOMA OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING
Students who hold an unrestricted electrical license issued by a state or Territory and are successfully competent in both theoretical and practical training, completing all units of competency in the training package (refer http://training.gov.au/Training/Details/UEE50420 and http://training.gov.au/Training/Details/UEE62120), will receive the full qualifications.
This advanced diploma in engineering technology provides competencies to assess and manage risks, undertake design, validation/evaluation and audit functions and provide technical advice/sales related to electrical equipment, instrumentation and control systems installed in hazardous areas in the chemical, mineral processing and oil and gas industry.
WHO IS THIS COURSE FOR?
This post-trade and professional development gap training, is aimed at those keen participants who are keen on learning and gaining electrical equipment, instrumentation and control systems and hazardous area skills at the next level of complexity. This course is for anyone involved in the “supervision and compliance” side of electrical and instrumentation work, i.e. design, equipment and installation specification, planning and managing projects, auditing or inspection of electrical equipment, instrumentation and control systems in hazardous areas.
The course creates pathway to become a Technical Authority and Team Leader responsible for ensuring compliance of EEHA at site, to local regulations and latest AS/NZS standards. Electricians and instrument technicians in supervision roles, are the most common attendees, but we also train electrical engineers who perform inspections, plan and manage the electrical and EEHA projects as part of their role. The course covers the theory and practice of field work in hazardous areas.
Prerequisites:
Holding of electrical license or the above qualifications is preferred but not essential. PMV can offer additional gap training to electrical workers who have industry experience but not the qualification.

COURSE STRUCTURE
You will undergo one on one practical training with industry experienced, qualified Electrical and Instrumentation Professional Trainers/ Engineers who have hands on experience on electrical instrumentation and control system installations in hazardous areas. The training will be conducted, in the following areas, on the purpose-built hazardous areas and instrumentation skids with field instruments and control system that you are likely to see in a typical industrial EEHA installation:
- Write specification and develop design briefs for electrical engineering projects
- Design explosion-protected electrical systems and installations – gas/dust atmospheres/ Pressurisation/ coal mining
- Conduct audit of hazardous areas installations — gas atmospheres
- Plan and manage large electrical projects including contract variations
- Apply material science and physics in solving electro-technology engineering problems
- Provide solutions for problems in complex multiple path and polyphase power circuits
- Ensure team effectiveness and facilitate continuous improvement
- To broaden knowledge in understanding how processing plant architectures are put together
- To write up plant control philosophy and project engineering specification
