Interplanetary (IP) shock signatures from interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) data gathered by the Explorer 33, 34 and 35 satellites were compared with H magnetograms associated with major sudden shock commencements (SC) from ground observatories within the equatorial electrojet belt (Huancayo, Addis Ababa and Trivandrum) during 1967-70. It is suggested that the SC in H at low latitudes are composed of two effects: one due to hydromagnetic pressure on the magnetosphere caused by the solar plasma, and the other due to the induced electric field associated with the solar wind velocity. The effect of the magnetospheric electric field is faster than the effect due to the compression of the magnetosphere by the impinging solar plasma.
