What an assessment for UEEHA0023 must cover
50 assessable components: 3 elements (12 performance criteria), 14 performance evidence and 24 knowledge evidence requirements. 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 Establish inspection and maintenance requirements
- 1.1Understanding of the provisions of hazardous area standards applicable to area classification, electrical installation design, selection and installation, and repair and reclamation of electrical equipment is applied to establishing the inspection and maintenance program
- 1.2Documentation in the verification dossier is reviewed to ascertain the extent of hazardous areas, the area classifications and the electrical installation details and, for an existing site, previous inspection schedule and maintenance program records
- 1.3The effect of external factors that may influence equipment integrity are assessed and included in establishing the types, grades and frequency inspections
2 Develop an inspection program for a hazardous area
- 2.1Inspection schedules are developed from knowledge of the extent of the hazardous area and the electrical installation, the assessment of factors influencing equipment integrity and an understanding of the requirements and recommendations of standards and equipment manufacturers
- 2.2Procedures for each grade of inspection are developed from recommendations of standards and equipment manufacturers and conditions particular to the site
- 2.3A documentation system is developed for reporting inspection activities and identifying non-compliance defects and recommendations for maintenance
- 2.4WHS/OHS policies and procedures are incorporated into the inspection and resulting maintenance program
3 Implement and evaluate the inspection and maintenance program
- 3.1Qualifications of inspectors and maintenance personnel are reviewed to ensure they are currently competent to do the work
- 3.2Periodic and sample inspection reports are used to develop maintenance programs and identify the need to revise the extent and frequency of inspections
- 3.3Maintenance programs are established within the limits permitted for remedial maintenance in hazardous areas
- 3.4Procedures are established for equipment identified as requiring repair or overhaul to be removed from service and sent to an accredited facility
- 3.5Reports and other documentation related to the inspection and maintenance program activities are retained in the site verification dossier
Performance evidence
- determining inspection requirements, including:
- reviewing all documentation held in the verification dossier
- assessing the effect of factors that may influence equipment integrity
- developing an inspection program for a given hazardous area, including:
- developing inspection schedules based on information gathered from the verification dossier, factors that may influence equipment integrity, requirements of relevant standards and any previous inspection results
- developing procedures for each grade of inspection based on the recommendations of standards and equipment manufacturers and conditions particular to the site
- developing or reviewing the documentation systems for reporting inspection activities and identifying non-compliance defects and recommendations for maintenance
- establishing or improving work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS) procedures and safe work methods for inspection and maintenance activities
- implementing and evaluating the inspection program and the resulting maintenance required, including:
- reviewing qualifications of inspection and maintenance persons to ensure they are currently competent
- developing a maintenance program from periodic and sample inspection reports, including procedures for dealing with equipment that may require repair or overhaul
- evaluating the need to revise the extent and frequency of inspections from analysis of information in the inspection reports
- ensuring all inspection and maintenance documents are retained in the verification dossier
- establishing procedures for remedial maintenance and equipment repair and overhaul.
Knowledge evidence
- area classification, including:
- general principles and objectives
- area classification procedures, including:
- sources and grades of release
- type and extent of zones
- dust layer hazards
- application of equipment protection levels (EPLs)
- required inspection documentation including:
- site-specific documents, including:
- area classification and, where included, EPL for each location
- records of explosion-protected equipment to be maintained in accordance with its type of protection
- previous inspection records
- compliance standards for equipment, electrical installation, design and selection and inspection and maintenance
- inspection requirements, including:
- grades of inspection and types of inspection
- aspects to consider in establishing an inspection schedule
- inspection schedule requirements
- documentation of the results of scheduled inspections
- WHS/OHS policy and safe work methods, including isolation of equipment within the hazardous area
- maintenance requirements, including:
- aspects of equipment subject to maintenance
- limits of remedial maintenance within hazardous areas
- requirements for repair, overhaul and reclamation of equipment
- defects and remedial recommendations identified in schedule inspections.

Questions about assessing UEEHA0023
What does an assessment tool for UEEHA0023 need to cover?
To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for UEEHA0023 needs to address all 50 unit components: 3 elements with 12 performance criteria, 14 performance evidence requirements, 24 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 UEEHA0023?
Auditori pulls the current release of UEEHA0023 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 UEEHA0023 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.
Can I check my existing UEEHA0023 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 UEEHA0023, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
