For small tetrodes, the safest way to power the screen is through a high-ohm power resistor connected to the anode supply, feeding a shunt V regulator connected in parallel with the screen. This conf

Dick -- Those that use screen potentials of under 800v or so. For tetrodes with handles, shunt screen regulation is do-able but not very practical. cheers Rich Measures, 805.386.3734, AG6K, www.somis

A tube that arcs from the anode to the screen is already a goner, Ian, so there is nothing of value to protect. Common reasons for high dissipation in the screen are loss of load, loss of anode suppl

When load loss happens, the first thing to arc is the Tune-C. The resultant metal-vapour arc reduces the anode potential to a few tens of volts. The bang is not from an arc in a vacuum. In a typical
