Abstract

Along with the protection of magnets and power converters, we have added a section on personnel protection because this is our highest priority in the
design and operation of power systems. Thus, our topics are the protection of people, power converters, and magnet loads (protected from the powering
equipment), including normal conducting magnets and superconducting magnets.
