Resistive voltage dividers  have very good response parameters. Therefore they are used for measurements  for full and front chopped lightning impulses or impulses voltages with steep  wave fronts, also in the special condition it can be used for measuring DC.

The transformation ratio and transfer behavior of resistive divider fulfils the IEC 60060-2 and GB/T16927.2-1997 requirements, in particular those with respect to measuring accuracy and dynamic behavior. The divider components are designed in such a way that the transfer errors are negligible for the lightning impulse shapes.
