- ASSESSMENT & CERTIFICATION
The trainee will be tested for his skill, knowledge and attitude during the period of course through formative assessment and at the end of the training program through summative assessment as notified by the DIYguru from time to time.
The Continuous Assessment (Internal) during the period of training will be done by Formative Assessment Method by testing for assessment criteria listed against learning outcomes. The training institute has to maintain individual trainee portfolios as detailed in assessment guidelines.
- ASSESSMENT GUIDELINE
Appropriate arrangements should be made to ensure that there will be no artificial barriers to assessment. The nature of special needs should be taken into account while undertaking the assessment. Due consideration should be given while assessing teamwork, avoidance/reduction of scrap/wastage and disposal of scrap/waste as per procedure, behavioral attitude, sensitivity to the environment and regularity in training. The sensitivity towards OSHE and self-learning attitude are to be considered while assessing competency.
Assessment will be evidence based comprising the following:
- Job carried out in labs/workshop
- Record book/ daily diary
- Answer sheet of assessment
- Viva-voce
- Progress chart
- Attendance and punctuality
- Assignment
- Project work
- JOB ROLE
Electrician, Electric Vehicle; installs, repairs replaces and overhauls wiring, starters, generators, distributors and other electrical equipment of motor vehicles. Examines vehicle battery, checks voltage and specific gravity using special equipment such as voltmeter hydrometer, heavy discharge tester, etc. and ensures that battery is in good condition. Checks vehicle wiring, locates faults and rectifies defects by replacing damaged wire or connecting ends with insulation tape. Starts EV powertrain to check whether BMS is charging correctly, and if Motor, Motor Controller and switches are functioning properly. Estimates nature of defects and reports components to be replaced or repaired. Dismantles and repairs electrical units and components such as Motor, generator, inverter, distributor etc. where required. Replaces repaired kit or unit in vehicle and connects it with battery.
