Advances in power electronics Power system faults can happen when a tree or vehicle hits a power line, a grid operator makes a mistake, or equipment fails. A protection scheme should quickly isolate the fault from the rest of the grid, thus limiting damage on the spot and preventing the fault from spreading to the rest of the system.

An old-fashioned triode vacuum tube does that using a voltage applied to its grid electrode. This left the magnetic amplifier to play only minor roles, such as for light dimmers in theaters. Even the space shuttle used magnetic amplifiers to dim its fluorescent lights. So here I’ll offer the little-known story of the mag amp.
