The Battery Storage Systems for Grid-Connected PV Systems: Install only Course consists of two main components:

  1. Online theory completed at students’ own pace with tutor support.
  2. A Online + Classroom (2 days) practical component held at an Energy Training Group Training Facility.

The delivery mode of this course is designed for busy tradespeople who do not have the time to attend lengthy Online + Classroom courses to expand their knowledge and skills: the fully flexible web-based format of the online component allows students to complete the theory in their own time.

To enroll in this course, you must be a licensed electrician and have previously completed the units of competency UEENEEK125A and UEENEEK148A or have completed the units of competency UEERE0011 and UEERE0016. Students who successfully complete all components of the course will receive a Statement of Attainment for the unit of competency UEERE0054, UEERE0077 and UEERE0078.

An unrestricted electrical licence issued by an Australian state or territory is a prerequisite for enrolment in this course. Electrical apprentices may enrol in this course, however they will need to wait till until they are issued their unrestricted licence before being awarded a Statement of Attainment OR show they have completed the prerequisite Units of Competency in their studies already:

One of:

    • UEEEL0039 Design, install and verify compliance and functionality of general electrical installations
    • UEERE0051 Apply electrical principles to renewable energy design
    • UEEEL0012 Install low voltage wiring, appliances, switchgear and associated accessories

This course builds on the knowledge of the Grid-Connected PV Systems Design and Install course, so a prerequisite for enrolment is a Statement of Attainment in the following Unit of Competency:

  • UEERE0061: Design grid-connected photovoltaic power supply systems

If a student does not have a Statement of Attainment in UEERE0061 but does have a Statement of Attainment in any of the following superseded Units of Competency, they will be enrolled in gap assessment for UEERE0061

    • UEENEEK135A: Design grid connected photovoltaic power supply systems
    • UEENEEK035C: Design grid connected power supply systems
    • UEENEEK035B: Design grid connected power supply systems

    This course uses two delivery methods:

    • Online theory completed at students’ own pace with tutor support.
    • A face-to-face (2 days) practical component held at an Energy Training Group Training Facility.

    Online component: The time to complete the online component will differ between students, but students should expect to commit around 36 hours.

    Practical component: Approximately 60% of the online assessments must be completed before attending the face-to-face practical component.

    Courses are valid for twelve (12) months. Extension fees apply from the date of expiry, and the maximum extension permitted is six (6) months from the date of expiry.

    Students can buy the book following Australian Standards, available for purchase from the SAI Global website or Techstreet website. The book is also available in some libraries, institutions, and industry associations in Australia:

    • AS/NZS 5139 – Electrical installations – Safety of battery systems for use with power conversion equipment
    • AS/NZS 4777.1 – Grid connection of energy systems via inverters – Part 1: Installation requirements
    • AS/NZS 5033 – Installation and safety requirements for photovoltaic (PV) arrays
    • AS/NZS 3000 – Wiring Rules
    • AS/NZS 3008.1.1 – Electrical installations – Selection of cables

    Enrolled students have to make sure they have:

    • Computer with a reliable Internet connection
