  The Spiral2 driver requires a Single Bunch Selector to reduce the bunch repetition rate at the experimental targets. A 100 Ω meander line is used in the beta 0.04 medium energy line of the Spiral2 driver. The non standard characteristic impedance figure helps to reduce the pulsed power but introduces the problem of calibrated measurements. The paper describes the results of the different methods used to measure the impedance and the delay of the electrodes.
