Expert testimony is one of the most important tools used by courts in complex cases, especially those involving technical and engineering aspects. In this context, the electrical engineer plays a crucial role by providing expert reports that assist judges and investigators in understanding cases related to electrical systems or power networks, such as electricity theft, fires caused by electrical faults, or meter tampering.<br /><br />The Role of Electrical Engineer Reports in Criminal Justice:<br /><br />Clarifying Technical Evidence: Translating complex technical data into clear information understandable by judicial authorities.<br /><br />Detecting Manipulation or Faults: Identifying whether there has been intentional tampering with meters or power networks.<br /><br />Determining Causes of Incidents: Such as fires or electric shocks caused by negligence or sabotage.<br /><br />Supporting the Integrity of Investigations: Providing impartial reports based on accurate scientific foundations.<br /><br />Connection to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs):<br /><br />Goal 16 (Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions): Expert involvement strengthens justice and integrity through reliable scientific evidence.<br /><br />Goal 9 (Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure): Protecting power networks and infrastructures from tampering or misuse.<br /><br />Goal 7 (Affordable and Clean Energy): Reducing electricity theft and waste supports energy efficiency and sustainability.<br /><br />Expert reports provided by electrical engineers are not merely technical services; they are a cornerstone in achieving criminal justice, safeguarding society, and ensuring the optimal use of energy resources.<br /><br />Al-Mustaqbal University the first university in Iraq<br />
