This award is associated with how to test networks using the test equipment correctly, aimed at level three or above. The problem these days is field staff don’t understand or have never been correctly shown how to test with an OTDR, OLTS, or liver fibre identifier. When issues arrive, they cannot be resolved. Usually, a senior engineer has to get involved; when we test, we have to test to a standard like IEC specifications. However, sometimes, misconfiguration of testers is not aligned with testing standards, and problems begin. To achieve this status, you must pass the chosen vocational award and demonstrate your knowledge and expertise to perform tests and certify fibres correctly to industry standards and client specifications.
