In electrical, electronic and instrumentation industries, engineering professionals perform tests and measurements for quality assurance and performance evaluation to comply with Australian Standards. They need to acquire basic knowledge and skills in electrical analogue measurement techniques and familiarisation with Australian Standards. Topics in this unit deal with practical aspects of using analogue measuring instruments and test equipment, and analytical techniques for performance evaluation of components, devices and circuits.
Successful completion of this unit should enable the student to :

1 Comply with the special instructions given in each Assessment
Instrument.
2 Residential school attendance is compulsory.
3 To achieve a passing grade in this unit, in addition to a total
mark of approximately 500 out of 1000, satisfactory performance
will be required in the home experiment reports, the residential
school reports, and the final examination. The standard for
satisfactory performance is at least 50% of the available marks
for that assessment.
4 To achieve a B grade in this unit, in addition to meeting
requirement 3, a total mark better than approximately 700 out of
1000 will be required. To achieve an A grade in this unit, in
addition to meeting requirement 3, a total mark of better than
approximately 800 out of 1000 will be required. To achieve a HD
grade in this unit, in addition to meeting requirement 3, a total
mark of better than approximately 900 out of 1000 will be
required.
5 The penalty for late submission of any report or assignment work
will normally be the loss of all marks for that work.
6 It is the policy of the Faculty of Engineering and Surveying NOT
to accept submission of assignments by facsimile or email.
Students in remote locations who do not have regular access to
postal services may be given special consideration.
7 For the 3 hour, closed book, final examination, calculators are
NOT permitted. Students are required to supply their own drawing
instruments, including a cheap protractor.
