I think Don is right: the resistive load measurement is not useful; yo need to measure the e.m.f. and to perform two reactive load measurements in order to solve the equations. - ESAOTE S.p.A. Paolo Peruzzi Research

Hi Dave: I had the same question some time back, and came up with the following process. 1) For the resistive component, I applied a resistive load to the AC line, and calculated R = dV/dI 2) For the inductive component, I measured the transient current through an 'X' capacitor at the moment
