Is it possible to insert a resistor between surge generator and CDN to provide the correct impedance? Here is one source of high-voltage, power resistors.

Thanks Don. Too bad our generator/CDN only has 2 or 12 ohms! Jim Eichner, P.Eng.

We are being asked to run this test and don't have the standard. The voltage is 5kV and the energy is 0.5J but rather than do the calculus involved I thought I'd just ask for the specified source impedance.
