SURGE IMPEDANCE
Surge Impedance is the characteristic impedance of a lossless
transmission line. It is also called Natural Impedance because
this impedance has nothing to do with load impedance. Since
line is assumed to be lossless, this means that series resistance
and shunt conductance is negligible i.e. zero for power lines.
SURGE IMPEDANCE LOADING
SIL is defined as the power delivered by a line to a purely
resistive load equal in value to the surge impedance of that line.
The unit of SIL is Watt or MW.
When the line is terminated by surge impedance the receiving
end voltage is equal to the sending end voltage and this case is
called flat voltage profile.
