As current moves thru the inductor, the rising magnetic field causes the
peak currents to reduce. It takes a bit of time to produce the magnetic
field, and
this clamps the peak currents. Commonly used in series with large Marx
generators when testing HV insulators, transformers, etc.

Hi Jim,
I've never heard mention of the resistors for LC filtering in the Terry
filter. Given the application and various configurations of the transformers
and tank C with no change to the resistor, I don't see how the inductance
can play a part in the filtering.
Take care,
Bart

The Terry Resistors handle some fair power. Terry selected the Ohmites for
the "small air core inductance they add" to the filter.
