What you’ll learn on this course
There are seven Level 3 Performance Units to be assessed before you can gain the Experienced Worker qualification:
- Apply Practices and Procedures for Maintenance.
- Apply Health, Safety and Environmental Considerations.
- Organise and Oversee the Electrical Work Environment.
- Apply Design and Installation Practices and Procedures.
- Terminate and Connect Conductors.
- Inspect, Test and Commission Electrical Systems.
- Apply Fault Diagnosis and Rectification.
To pass these units, you must provide evidence from a site of your previous work to demonstrate you can fully meet the performance requirements of each unit.
You will be assessed via a range of methods and an assessor will need to observe you at work on at least one occasion during the evidence gathering process.
Please note the Wiring and initial verification units aren't examined within the 2346 – these are proxy units i.e. candidates need to take these separately and centres claim them as proxies to achieve the 2346.
Where cited legislation and regulations are not applicable (for example, where the qualification is being delivered outside of England) then substitutions applicable to the learner's jurisdiction can be made.

- Assessment is based on a portfolio of evidence, submitted by the learner. This should demonstrate whether, or not, they have met the performance requirements - something an assessor at your centre can decide.
