How to Evaluate Impedance (STL)?

Impedance (STL) evaluator uses Impedance = (Sending End Voltage-Receiving End Voltage)/Receiving End Current to evaluate the Impedance, The Impedance (STL) is the current influenced by the line's impedance, calculated as the sending voltage divided by the line's impedance (I = V/Z). In short lines, this current closely matches the load current due to minimal impedance effects. Impedance is denoted by Z symbol.
