- Explain concepts of direct current theory, as well as performing basic calculations
- Identify concepts of single-phase and three-phase AC, and perform basic calculations
- Explain electricity production and distribution from the producer to the user
- Apply basic measurement techniques, and the most common measuring instruments in electrical engineering
- Perform basic chart reading and troubleshooting
- Explain the basic concepts and areas of control theory
