  • Abstract
    The design of a power system is an assessment in safety and functional performances correctible and perfectible during its life cycle with risk and quality management. Hazards exist and will continue to exist in a world of ever-increasing technology; so risk assessment is mandatory. Professionalism requires dedication by the individual, it needs the highest competence like major basis for decision making and for avoiding errors. The competence of a person rests on a double root, related to conscious-unconscious that is objective characteristics and to sensorial-sub sensorial that is subjective capacities.
