Zero initial condition in time-invariant passive linear systems refers to the state where all capacitors have zero initial voltage and all inductors have zero initial current, indicating that no energy is stored in the circuit. This condition ensures that the circuit's behavior is solely determined by the inputs applied. Understanding this concept is crucial for analyzing the response of linear systems to various input signals.
