What an assessment for AURETH101 must cover

30 assessable components: 4 elements (15 performance criteria), 2 performance evidence and 6 knowledge evidence requirements, plus 7 foundation skills. An audit-defensible tool maps every question and task back to these — that mapping is the coverage matrix Auditori generates alongside the assessment.

Elements & performance criteria

1 Prepare to depower and reinitialise BEV

  • 1.1Identify job requirements from workplace instructions
  • 1.2Identify required information for servicing activity
  • 1.3Identify hazards associated with the work, assess potential risks and implement control measures in line with workplace policies and procedures
  • 1.4Identify tools and equipment required for servicing activity and establish serviceability according to workplace procedures

2 Deactivate vehicle RESS

  • 2.1Locate and disconnect SELV supply according to manufacturer specifications
  • 2.2Locate and remove RESS service plug or manual service disconnect to depower vehicle HV RESS according to manufacturer specifications
  • 2.3Stabilise vehicle is stabilised ensure zero residual voltage according to manufacturer procedures
  • 2.4Secure and retain RESS service plug or manual service disconnect to prevent refitting by third party

3 Reinitialise vehicle RESS

  • 3.1Reconnect SELV and RESS service plug or manual service disconnect in the correct order and reactivate vehicle
  • 3.2Carry out diagnostic tests to ensure correct recalibration of subsystems affected by depower process according to manufacturer procedures
  • 3.3Check RESS and vehicle subsystems for correct operation
  • 3.4Report post-reactivation faults according to workplace procedures

4 Complete work processes

  • 4.1Conduct final inspection according to workplace procedures and confirm vehicle is ready for use
  • 4.2Clear work area and dispose of or recycle materials according to workplace procedures
  • 4.3Complete documentation according to workplace procedures

Performance evidence

  • safely depower the rechargeable energy storage system (RESS) and separated extra low voltage (SELV) system of two different battery electric vehicles (BEVs), and stabilise the vehicles ensuring that no residual high voltage (HV) is measured
  • safely reinitialise each BEV’s RESS and SELV system and confirm correct vehicle operation

Knowledge evidence

  • methods to locate and interpret information required to depower and reinitialise battery electric vehicles, including: - vehicle manufacturer specifications and procedures or equivalent documentation
  • workplace procedures required to depower and reinitialise battery electric vehicles, including: - establishing the serviceability of tools and equipment - documentation procedures - housekeeping procedures, including: - examination of tools and equipment - storage of equipment - identification, tagging and isolation of faulty equipment - disposal of excess materials - recycling procedures
  • work health and safety (WHS) requirements relating to depowering and reinitialising BEVs, including procedures for: - identifying hazards and controlling risks associated with: - working with high voltages on BEV electrical systems - wearing jewellery while working around high electrical currents - determining appropriate procedures for minimising risk associated with hazards, including applying electrical safety precautions when: - using personal protective equipment (PPE), including electrical safety gloves with 1000 volt rating and Australian standards rated HV insulating mat - identifying and using firefighting equipment as appropriate - using the ‘one hand’ rule - following live system warning tags and signs - depowering vehicle - isolating HV RESS electrical supply - stabilising vehicle electrical system
  • requirements of AS 5732 Electric vehicle operations - Maintenance and repair
  • operating principles of RESS and SELV electrical systems relevant to a range of BEVs
  • purpose and operation of a range of vehicle RESS depowering and reinitialising methods

Foundation skills

  • Learning: Locates required sources of information efficiently
  • Reading: Interprets text, symbols and diagrams in depowering and reinitialising information in manufacturer specifications, and workplace instructions and procedures
  • Oral communication: Listens to workplace instructions and ask questions to clarify job requirements Participates in verbal exchanges when depowering and reinitialising BEVs
  • Numeracy: Matches electrical components and part identification numbers to workplace instructions, vehicle and component part lists, and manufacturer specifications Interprets vehicle electrical measurements and readings on digital and analogue gauges Interprets measurements of residual voltage and high voltages relating to BEVs
  • Planning and organising: Plans own work requirements Prioritises actions to achieve required outcomes Ensures tasks are completed within workplace timeframes
  • Problem solving: Identifies faults in reinitialising process that need to be reported
  • Technology: Uses specialised tools

Questions about assessing AURETH101

What does an assessment tool for AURETH101 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for AURETH101 needs to address all 30 unit components: 4 elements with 15 performance criteria, 2 performance evidence requirements, 6 knowledge evidence requirements, and the foundation skills. A coverage matrix mapping each question and task to these components is what an auditor looks for.

How does Auditori generate an assessment tool for AURETH101?

Auditori pulls the current release of AURETH101 from training.gov.au and generates a complete package: candidate assessment, assessor guide with model answers and observation criteria, and a coverage matrix mapping every component. A suitably qualified person then reviews and approves the draft in a built-in workflow — consistent with ASQA's guidance on AI use in VET — before export as branded PDF and editable Word.

Is the first assessment tool really free?

Yes. Every new account includes one free credit — enough to generate the complete assessment tool for AURETH101 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing AURETH101 assessment instead of generating a new one?

Yes — upload your existing assessment or learner guide and Auditori maps it against every element, performance criterion, PE and KE of AURETH101, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
