Written to AQF level 3, this edition has been strengthened to address the new units of competency (UOC), including coverage of popular Telecommunications electives.
All chapters have been updated to reflect the new training package, and ensure all references to Wiring Rules and relevant standards are current.
Additional chapters mean the text is also suitable for delivery of UEE22020—Certificate II in Electrotechnology (Career Start), giving students the opportunity to carry the same text through two qualifications.
