Abstract
It is shown that an unmatched four-wire transmission line can be used as a combined standard for electric and magnetic field strengths as well as for the energy density and energy flux density in that field. The control parameters can be the electric field strength at the maximum, the short-circuit current in the line, and the power absorbed in the load. The main advantages are the simple formulas relating the control parameters to the quantities reproduced and the ease of building a device to reproduce them.
