What an assessment for UEEHA0028 must cover
63 assessable components: 3 elements (17 performance criteria), 15 performance evidence and 31 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 Prepare for and establish extent of the audit
- 1.1Records system (verification dossier) is reviewed to verify that essential hazardous area documentation is retained and procedures for maintaining records are established
- 1.2Hazardous area classification processes are applied to auditing classification and design documentation including the procedures followed and verifying traceability and authentication
- 1.3Details of any alterations/modification to the plant or processes are ascertained from consultation with responsible plant personnel
- 1.4Type and intended location of each item of equipment and routes of wiring systems subject to audit are determined from design drawings and documentation
- 1.5WHS policies and procedures for working in the given hazardous area are obtained and interpreted
- 1.6Compliant tools and equipment required for the audit are obtained and checked for correct operation and safety
2 Perform audit
- 2.1WHS/OHS procedures, including compliance with requirements for isolation of explosion-protected equipment and circuits, are interpreted and applied
- 2.2Area classification documentation is examined for compliance of process, traceability and relevance to the current plant and processes
- 2.3Electrical design documents for the installation are assessed for compliance with the relevant standards and as-installed documentation
- 2.4Certification documentation and any repair/overhaul or compliance assessment record for item of explosion-protected equipment are assessed for compliance with requirements for the current plant and processes
- 2.5Appropriately authorised persons are directed to open equipment enclosures as required for the audit and on completion ensure integrity of explosion-protection is restored
- 2.6Electrical equipment and installation are audited for conformance to the design as-installed specifications and compliance with requirements of the applicable standards
- 2.7Inspection and maintenance records are evaluated against the condition of the plant and assessed for compliance with requirements
3 Report audit results
- 3.1Differences between the hazardous area documentation (verification dossier), including the as-installed design specifications and installation, are reported
- 3.2Deficiencies and inaccuracies in site record and non-conformances of explosion-protected equipment and the installation, and recommendation for their rectification, are documented in the audit report
- 3.3The audit report is forwarded to the person responsible for actioning the recommendation/s
- 3.4The audit report is forwarded to the person responsible for maintaining the hazardous area documentation (verification dossier)
Performance evidence
- reviewing the verification dossier to confirm whether essential hazardous area documentation is retained and procedures for maintaining records are established
- checking hazardous area classification and design drawings and documentation to confirm whether appropriate procedures have been followed and are traceable and authentic
- ascertaining details of any alteration/modification to plant or processes
- determining the type and intended location of each item of equipment subject to audit from design drawings and documentation
- obtaining WHS/OHS policies and procedures and compliant tools and equipment needed for the audit
- interpreting and applying WHS/OHS work procedures
- examining area classification documentation for compliance of process, traceability and relevance to the current plant and processes
- assessing electrical design documents for the installation for compliance with the relevant standards and as-installed documentation
- assessing certification documentation and any repair/overhaul or compliance assessment record for item of explosion-protected equipment for compliance with requirements for the current plant and processes
- directing appropriately authorized persons to open equipment enclosures as required for the audit and on completion ensuring integrity of explosion-protection is restored
- auditing electrical equipment and installation for conformance to the design as-installed specifications and compliance with requirements of the applicable standards
- evaluating inspection and maintenance records against the condition of the plant and accessing compliance with requirements
- reporting differences between the hazardous area documentation (verification dossier), including the as-installed design specifications and installation
- documenting audit report deficiencies and inaccuracies in the site records and non-conformances of explosion-protected equipment and its installation and recommendation for rectification
- forwarding the audit report to the person responsible for acting on the recommendation and for maintaining the hazardous area documentation (verification dossier)
Knowledge evidence
- documentation retained in a verification dossier appropriate and sufficient for the site and includes details such as the following where relevant including:
- area classification including:
- site drawings showing the horizontal and elevated delineation of each zone
- explosive/flammable characteristics of the material creating the explosive atmosphere
- information related to dust layers
- justification/explanation for the zones and delineation
- justification for the area classification
- installation design including:
- specification for non-hazardous areas
- specification for each item of explosion-protected equipment
- specification of wiring systems
- equipment location drawings
- cable schedule/route drawing for wiring system
- as-installed equipment including:
- certification documents for each item and manufacturer’s information including limits of use
- history of repairs/overhaul to an item of explosion-protected equipment including compliance assessment
- certification documents for any second-hand equipment
- fitness-for-purpose assessments
- inspection and maintenance reports including:
- initial inspection
- periodic inspection schedules
- maintenance program and actions
- equipment repair/overhaul
- other documentation required for the given purpose/activities of the site
- auditing process and procedures
- reference compliance standards for:
- area classification
- installation design
- selection of equipment
- installation/erection
- inspection and maintenance

Questions about assessing UEEHA0028
What does an assessment tool for UEEHA0028 need to cover?
To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for UEEHA0028 needs to address all 63 unit components: 3 elements with 17 performance criteria, 15 performance evidence requirements, 31 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 UEEHA0028?
Auditori pulls the current release of UEEHA0028 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 UEEHA0028 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.
Can I check my existing UEEHA0028 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 UEEHA0028, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
