Abstract Loop Inductance plays a significant role in the generation of lightning impulse waveform. Loop inductance is formed as a part of the impulse generation and measurement circuit including connections, types of front resistors used, self-inductance of the components in the impulse generator including internal connection of the impulse generator. These additional inductances cause unwanted oscillations in the lightning impulse wave, and this has different impact with both load and the source capacitance used. The study aims at identifying the effect of loop inductance with different load and source capacitance and determine the relative overshoot parameter β’ using the IEC evaluation as per standard 60060-1 Ed 3. The study can help to identify the usage of correct components during the test of electrical equipment’s for basic insulation level using lightning impulse generator. A better understanding on effect of loop inductance can improve the operational efficiency of the generator and time utilization of QA/QC test engineers.
