What an assessment for AURETR010 must cover

36 assessable components: 5 elements (18 performance criteria), 2 performance evidence and 9 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 repair wiring harness and loom

  • 1.1Job requirements are determined according to workplace instructions

  • 2.3Inspection and test results are compared with manufacturer specifications
  • 2.4Faults are identified from test results and causes of faults are determined

3 Remove wiring harness and loom

  • 3.1Wiring harness, loom assembly and associated components are labelled before removal
  • 3.2Harness and loom components are removed according to manufacturer specifications, workplace procedures and safety requirements, and without causing damage to components or systems

4 Repair and refit wiring harness and loom

  • 4.1Electrical circuit wiring diagrams are accessed and interpreted from manufacturer and component supplier specifications
  • 4.2Harness and loom are repaired or fabricated using appropriate techniques and according to workplace procedures
  • 4.3Repaired or fabricated harness and loom assembly is refitted and reconnected according to manufacturer and component supplier specifications
  • 4.4Post-repair testing is carried out according to workplace procedures to confirm fault rectification, and any further problems detected as having been introduced during the repair or fabrication process are rectified

5 Complete work processes

  • 5.1Final inspection is made to ensure work is to workplace expectations and vehicle, vessel or machinery is presented ready for use
  • 5.2Work area is cleaned, waste and non-recyclable materials are disposed of, and recyclable material is collected
  • 5.3Tools and equipment are checked and stored and any faulty electrical equipment is identified, tagged and isolated according to workplace procedures
  • 5.4Workplace documentation is processed according to workplace procedures

Performance evidence

  • repair an existing basic wiring harness or loom assembly of the wiring systems of two different vehicles, vessels or machinery
  • fabricate a new basic wiring harness or loom assembly for the wiring system of one vehicle, vessel or machinery

Knowledge evidence

  • work health and safety (WHS) and occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements relating to repairing wiring harnesses and looms, including procedures for: using safety data sheets (SDS); selecting and using personal protective equipment (PPE); identifying firefighting equipment; safely handling hazardous materials and toxic substances; following soldering equipment safe operating procedures
  • environmental requirements, including procedures for trapping, storing and disposing of hazardous materials and toxic substances released during repair processes
  • location and content of workplace procedures and manufacturer specifications relating to wiring harnesses and looms
  • types of wiring systems found in vehicles, including: basic single wiring, including: tailer harness; driving lights harness; accessory wiring harness; complex multi-wiring with varying wire gauges; controller area network databus (CAN-bus) wiring, including: twisted pair; shielded wiring
  • testing procedures, including: accessing electrical terminals and using test probes without damaging connectors, fuse holders or wiring; testing wiring harnesses and looms, including resistance and voltage drop and circuit performance checks
  • visual and functional assessments, including: component damage and wear; component corrosion; water and moisture ingress; damaged insulation; frayed wires; burnt wiring; terminal and connector damage
  • removal procedures for wiring harnesses and looms, including: accessing wiring and removing panels and covers; removing and replacing components; disconnecting terminals from connectors
  • repair procedures of wiring harnesses and looms, including: determining cable and terminal types and sizes according to circuit current draw; wire soldering procedures; terminal crimping; replacing male and female terminals within a connector housing; protecting and routing harness and loom
  • post-repair testing procedures of wiring harnesses and looms, including procedures for checking full operation of associated electrical systems

Foundation skills

  • Learning skills: locate appropriate sources of information efficiently.
  • Reading skills: interpret text, symbols and wiring diagrams relating to fabricating, testing and repairing wiring harnesses and looms in manufacturer specifications, and workplace instructions and procedures.
  • Writing skills: legibly and accurately fill out workplace documentation when recording parts and material used.
  • Oral communication skills: clarify instructions.
  • Numeracy skills: match component part numbers to workplace instructions and vehicle and component part lists; interpret measurements of wire size and gauge relating to wiring harnesses and loom fabrication and repairs; measure components to determine compliance with 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, tools and equipment relating to repairing wiring harnesses and looms, such as soldering irons and heat shrink insulation.

Questions about assessing AURETR010

What does an assessment tool for AURETR010 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for AURETR010 needs to address all 36 unit components: 5 elements with 18 performance criteria, 2 performance evidence requirements, 9 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 AURETR010?

Auditori pulls the current release of AURETR010 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 AURETR010 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing AURETR010 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 AURETR010, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
