Range of surge impedance for an overhead transmission line is ____________

Range of surge impedance for an overhead transmission line is ____________ Correct Answer 400 Ω – 600 Ω

Surge impedance is the characteristic impedance of a loss free transmission line. It is the square root of ratio of line impedance(Z) and shunt admittance (Y). Its value varies between 400 Ω and 600 Ω.
