Best Answer

A transient voltage is a time varying voltage value. Transient says that the voltage value changes, especially from a steady state, to a new value, then back again.

Define recovery voltage in circuit breakers?

It is the transient voltage that appears across the contacts of the circuit breaker at or near the zero current instant during arcing period. A high frequency transient voltage appears across the contacts and is caused by the rapid distribution of energy between the magnetic & electric field associated with the station & transmission lines of the system at the zero current. This transient voltage is known as restriking voltage.
