Hi, I'd appreciate your help in a couple of terms. This document is about test procedures performed on Transformers.

The context is:

"4.3.2. Ensayo de Impuso tipo Rayo.
Deducir el comportamiento del transformador cuando se le someta a una sobretensión en forma de onda normalizada semejante a las producidas en las líneas a consecuencia de descargas atmosféricas.
....
Los equipos y aparatos en el ensayo son:
V : Transformador de regulación.
R : Rectificador de C.C
G : Generador de impulso.
S : Shunt de resistencia apropiada
D : Divisor de tensión capacitivo
O / SM:Oscilográfico analógico
U: Voltímetro de Choque
C : Spinterómetro ( Onda Cortada ).
"

thanks :)

Cut-off wavelength or cut off wavelength

I believe you are referring to this (seen it both ways):

The cut-off wavelength is the wavelength of single-mode fibre is the shortest wavelength for which only the fundamental mode propagates through the fibre.
