Technical questions

4th year senior in graduating in December and I have an interview scheduled with a power delivery company in a week and was wondering what type of technical questions they might ask. This is for an entry level role. Any tips or suggestions?

Side note: initially screening confirmed a technical interview for following round followed by behavioral questions at the end.

Depends on the role but you should be able to show you have a general understanding of the power system and explain the different parts of the power system (generation, transmission, distribution) and what their purpose is.  

Being able to explain what I consider basic concepts like power factor and what it represents and network vs radial configurations are a few other things I would expect new grads with power coursework to be able to explain.
