Surge Impedance Loading of Transmission Line is measured in | Transmission and Distribution MCQ#56

Surge Impedance Loading of Transmission Line is measured in:

  1. Megawatts
  2. Ohms
  3. 1 and 2
  4. None of these

Correct answer: 1. Megawatts

Surge Impedance Loading of Transmission Line is measured in MCQ Explanation

SIL or Surge Impedance Loading of a transmission line is defined as the power that is delivered by the line to a purely resistive load equal to its surge impedance.

Also see: Surge Impedance formula

Since SIL is defined as the power delivered by the line to purely resistive load it is measured in terms of MW (Megawatts)
