the ratio of voltage to current on that line for a high speed wave propagating down the line. The surge impedance of a line is a constant which depends on the line geometry and conductor characteristics. On power transmission lines, these waves are typically generated by lightning strokes, circuit breaker switching, etc. Also called characteristic impedance. |
