A technique for determining inductive and resistive components of power line impedance. A measurement circuit switches a burden or drain resistor between power line conductors to cause a droop or sag in a voltage waveform. The voltage waveform is sampled prior to inclusion of the resistor in the circuit, as well as after to identify the droop. The short circuit between the power lines is then removed by opening the circuit and a capacitor in the test circuitry causes a resonant ring due to the inductive component of the power line impedance. Based upon the period or frequency of the resonant ring, and upon the voltage measurements with and without the resistor in the circuit, the inductive and resistive components of power line impedance can be computed.
