Abstract
During the first three years of low luminosity operation, the LHC will facilitate a number of precision tests of the Electroweak sector of the Standard Model. The prospects for measuring the W boson and top quark masses and for probing the charged triple gauge boson couplings at ATLAS are presented here. In each case the most likely analysis methods are described and the statistical and systematic uncertainties which can be expected are reported.
