Title
Connect single-phase and three-phase electrical appliances and
fittings
Level
3
Purpose
Credits
3
This unit standard is for use in the training of electrical service
technicians. It covers the connection and testing of cables and
flexible cords to single-phase and three-phase electrical
appliances and fittings.
People credited with this unit standard are able to:
–
identify colour codes and terminal abbreviations for singlephase and three-phase cables and fittings;
–
select and identify flexible cords for given single-phase
and three-phase applications;
–
identify rigid electrical cables and their characteristics;
–
make up single-phase and three-phase extension leads;
–
connect single-phase and three-phase appliances to the
supply by flexible cords; and
–
make flexible cord terminations with crimp connectors.

This unit standard has been developed for learning and assessment off-job.
2
Competency under this unit standard does not entitle the candidate to legally perform
prescribed electrical work without adequate supervision until the candidate has been
registered and licensed under the Electricity Act 1992.

petrol, two others;
given information – environment, length, maximum current or power of
appliance; tables of conductor ratings and applications of flexible cords may be
used.
Evidence requirements
2.1
Cord conductor size is determined from length and current carrying capacity, in
accordance with current regulations and standards.
2.2
Type of cord and number of conductors is determined from environmental
conditions and type of application in accordance with current regulations and
standards.
2.3
Required cord is selected by inspection, given a range of different types and
sizes.
Outcome 3
Identify rigid electrical cables and their characteristics.
Evidence requirements
3.1
Type of cable is identified.
Range

sheathed (TRS), vulcanised india rubber (VIR), conduit wire,
neutral-screened (co-axial) cable;
material – polyvinyl chloride (PVC), poly-chloroprene (PCP), heat
and oil resisting and flame retardant (HO-FR).
3.2
Cable conductor size is determined.
Range
3.3
determination may be by sight, markings on cable or cable drum,
or measurement;
conductor size – 1.0, 1.5, 2.5, 4.0 mm2.
The characteristics of each type of cable are stated and a typical industry
application identified.
Outcome 4
Make up single-phase and three-phase extension leads.
Evidence requirements
4.1
Flexible cord is selected to match the plug and cord connectors, length and
environment in accordance with current regulations and standards.
4.2
Flexible cord is terminated at plug and cord connector according to current
regulations and standards, and industry practice.
Range
4.3
termination considerations include, but are not limited to –
matching conductors to terminations, colour code, strands are not
weakened by being nicked or cut from conductors, no stray
strands protruding, strands are twisted, and where necessary
doubled over, terminal screws are tightened, earth conductor is
installed so that it will suffer least or last under cord tension, fabric
covered cords are sleeved or whipped, cord clamp arrangement is
secured so that conductors are not strained, cord protector shroud
is replaced, flexible cord insulation integrity is maintained.
Extension lead is tested for continuity, polarity, and insulation resistance, and
results recorded, in accordance with current regulations and standards.
Outcome 5
Connect single-phase and three-phase appliances to the supply by flexible cords.
Range
single-phase – appliance to permanent wired connection point, by means of a
flexible cord;
three-phase – appliance to multi-pin plug, appliance to permanent wired
connection point.
Evidence requirements
5.1
Circuit is confirmed as being isolated from the supply and tagged in accordance
with industry practice.

5.2
Flexible cord is selected to match the appliance in accordance with current
regulations and standards, and industry practice.
5.3
Flexible cord is terminated at both ends in accordance with current regulations
and standards, and industry practice.
5.4
Visual checks and electrical testing of earthing, continuity, polarity, and
insulation resistance confirm that it is safe to reconnect the supply, and test
results are recorded, in accordance with current regulations and standards.
5.5
The supply is restored, safety tags removed, and proper operation of the
appliance checked in accordance with industry practice.
5.6
Normal operation of the appliance is confirmed in accordance with industry
practice and manufacturer’s requirements.
Outcome 6
Make flexible cord terminations with crimp connectors.
Range
terminations using at least two different types of crimp connectors.
Evidence requirements
6.1
Connectors are selected to match the terminations to which the cord is to be
connected, according to industry practice.
6.2
Terminations are made using the type of crimping tool appropriate for the
connectors, according to industry practice.

Please note
Providers must be granted consent to assess against standards (accredited) by NZQA,
before they can report credits from assessment against unit standards or deliver courses
of study leading to that assessment.
Industry Training Organisations must be granted consent to assess against standards by
NZQA before they can register credits from assessment against unit standards.
Providers and Industry Training Organisations, which have been granted consent and
which are assessing against unit standards must engage with the moderation system that
applies to those standards.
Requirements for consent to assess and an outline of the moderation system that applies
to this standard are outlined in the Consent and Moderation Requirements (CMR). The
CMR also includes useful information about special requirements for organisations wishing
to develop education and training programmes, such as minimum qualifications for tutors
and assessors, and special resource requirements.
