[Also in Group XXXVII] A mechanical current converter with switching chokes is protected upon occurrence of a fault by the operation of quick-acting circuitbreakers or short-circuiting devices by a device which includes at least one high-vacuum valve which normally carries current but is blocked upon occurrence of the fault. Valves 7, connected in parallel for greater safety, normally conduct current supplied from rectifier 5, to the energizing winding 4 of electromagnetic device 1. A fault in the inverter, e.g. passage of reverse or excess current, development of asymmetry or arc back, results in application of a negative potential to the grids of valves 7, current through winding 4 ceases and armature 2 is moved by spring 3 to operate the protective device. The protective device also operates upon failure of all valves 7 and of the mains supply which feeds the auxiliary rectifier 7. The time constant of the electromagnetic device may be such that it does not operate for blocking. impulses of short duration. Coil 4 must be well insulated and voltage suppressors may be provided to deal with high voltages induced in coil 4. The electromagnetic device 1 may be replaced by an electrostatic or magnetostrictive device.
