The cathode is typically connected to ground through the cathode bias network (zener diode in series with bias cutoff resistor/shorting relay) and the grid current return resistor (the grid current c

So the grid instantly cools, all leakage currents or arcs to the anode vanish, and the grid remains at zero volts at the instant of grid opening. Is that what you are proposing?. Never mind, I proba

Rich, How can it collect electrons from the cathode and take a charge when the path back to the cathode is broken via a blown fuse between the grid and ground making an open circuit? That would be li

I was always taught that to leave an electrode floating (which is what the grid is doing after the fuse blows) is bad practcie and can lead to tube damage. 73 Peter G3RZP ____________________________

It is already arcing. That is what makes the resistor fail. You can doubt it, but if you start an arc with 50 volts the lead can pull back 1/4 inch and still maintain the arc through plasma. With 30
