This Unit of competency (UOC) will continue until October 2025: It is presumed the new LVR unit (UETDRMP007) will be replacing the current LVR (UETDRRF004) late 2025.
​
If, for some reason you require the new UOC UETDRMP007, please book into this unit on THIS PAGE. You will need to provide evidence holding a full Electrical Licence or either UETDREL006 Work safely in the vicinity of live electrical apparatus as a non-electrical worker; OR UEECD0007 Apply work health and safety regulations, codes and practices in the workplace. This is a pre-requisite of the new LVR UETDRMP007.
​
The CPR and LVR course is essential if you are conducting live work or working with live switchboards. The course covers the performance of rescue procedures from a live Low Voltage (LV) apparatus, not including overhead lines and underground cables in the workplace.
It specifies the mandatory requirements of rescue from a live LV panel and how they apply in the context of transmission, distribution or rail work functions. It encompasses responsibilities for, health, safety and risk management processes at all operative levels and adherence to safety practices as part of the normal way of doing work.
​
Completing the course will provide an individual with the skills and knowledge to carry out and complete the LV panel rescue procedures and to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) on a casualty in a range of situations. It consists of real-life practical skills and knowledge to allow the participant to be assessed as competent in providing CPR in line with Australian Resuscitation Council (ARC) Guidelines as well as rescue procedures from an LV apparatus.
​
Low voltage rescue comprises responsive operations that involve the saving of life, or prevention of injury during an incident or dangerous situation.
