1.   | Critically analyse, design, implement and evaluate power systems using appropriate tools and analyse transmission systems for their efficiency and voltage drops. |
2.   | Investigate and solve problems related to the operation and control of power systems and devise appropriate solutions, given the social, cultural, environmental, economic and political context in which they operate. |
3.   | Critically analyse the performance of a power system using load flow studies, and where necessary derive recommendations for improvement to ensure system integrity and stability. |
4.   | Critically analyse symmetrical as well as asymmetrical short circuit currents in power systems and take appropriate action to improve system performance. |
5.   | Be an effective team member to develop, design, construct and evaluate power systems and contribute effectively in a team environment at a professional level. |
6.   | Apply effective communication methods to project and practical reports, to convey ideas and principles related to power systems. |
