recovery voltage
voltage which appears across the terminals of a circuit-breaker pole of a switching device or a
fuse after the breaking of the current

NOTE This voltage may be considered in two successive intervals of time, one during which a transient voltage
exists, followed by a second one during which the power frequency or the steady-sate recovery voltage alone
exists...
...ssumes that the switching device or the fuse, for which the prospective transient
recovery voltage is sought, is replaced by an ideal switching device, i...
