What an assessment for AURETR006 must cover

28 assessable components: 4 elements (13 performance criteria), 1 performance evidence and 8 knowledge evidence requirements, plus 6 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 solder electrical wiring and circuits

  • 1.1Job requirements are determined according to workplace instructions
  • 1.2Technical procedures and information are accessed and interpreted
  • 1.3Hazards associated with the work are identified and risks are managed
  • 1.4Tools and equipment are selected and checked for serviceability

2 Prepare components, circuits and wiring for soldering

  • 2.1Materials and components to be joined are selected and prepared according to workplace procedures and safety and environmental requirements
  • 2.2Solder and flux type are identified and prepared
  • 2.3Soldering equipment is cleaned and prepared ready for use

3 Carry out soldering of components, circuits and wiring

  • 3.1Soldering is carried out according to workplace quality expectations, and without causing damage to vehicle, components, electrical circuits and system wiring
  • 3.2Soldered connection is inspected visually and checked to ensure effectiveness

4 Complete work processes

  • 4.1Final inspection is made to ensure work is to workplace expectations and vehicle, vessel or machinery is presented ready for use
  • 4.2Work area is cleaned, waste and non-recyclable materials are disposed of, and recyclable material is collected
  • 4.3Tools and equipment are checked and stored and any faulty electrical equipment is identified, tagged and isolated according to workplace procedures
  • 4.4Workplace documentation is processed according to workplace procedures

Performance evidence

  • solder the wiring of six different electrical components, in which the work must involve: different sized gauge wires, electrical terminals, resin core solder, heat shrink sleeving.

Knowledge evidence

  • work health and safety (WHS) and occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements relating to soldering electrical wiring and circuits, including procedures for: using safety data sheets (SDS); selecting and using personal protective equipment (PPE); safely handling materials during solder process; safely operating soldering equipment; identifying and using firefighting and first aid equipment; environmental requirements, including procedures for trapping, storing and disposing of material released during soldering process
  • location and content of workplace preparation and soldering procedures, SDS and manufacturer specifications
  • procedures for preparing to solder electrical wiring and circuits, including: preparing and cleaning components to be soldered, including selecting appropriate cleaning solutions; methods of holding components to be soldered
  • soldering fluxes and their application
  • resin core solder types, diameter and application
  • types and applications of soldering irons
  • procedures for soldering electrical wiring and circuits, including: applying heat and solder to the parts to be joined; allowing cooling without movement
  • work completion procedures for soldering electrical wiring and circuits, including procedures for final visual inspection of soldered connections, including: manufacturer and workplace specifications for acceptable soldering standard; post-soldering insulation, including heat shrink sleeving and application of electrical tape

Foundation skills

  • Learning skills: locate appropriate sources of information efficiently.
  • Reading skills: interpret text, symbols and wiring diagrams relating to soldering repair information in manufacturer specifications, and workplace instructions and procedures.
  • Writing skills: legibly and accurately fill out workplace documentation, recording parts and material used.
  • Numeracy skills: interpret measurements of wire size and gauge relating to electrical wiring and circuits to select correct items; measure components to determine compliance with manufacturer specifications.
  • Planning and organising skills: plan own work requirements and prioritise actions to achieve required outcomes and ensure tasks are completed within workplace timeframes.
  • Technology skills: use specialised workplace technology, including soldering irons and heat guns.

Questions about assessing AURETR006

What does an assessment tool for AURETR006 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for AURETR006 needs to address all 28 unit components: 4 elements with 13 performance criteria, 1 performance evidence requirements, 8 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 AURETR006?

Auditori pulls the current release of AURETR006 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 AURETR006 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing AURETR006 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 AURETR006, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
