In an apparatus having a saturable magnetic core, a control winding wound on the magnetic core and supplied with a D.C. voltage in accordance with a desired phase angle, and an output winding wound on the magnetic core and supplied with an A.C. voltage through a load resistor, whereby the firing phase of a thyristor is controlled by a voltage across the load resistor, an additional winding is wound on the saturable magnetic core to detect the saturation of the saturable magnetic core by a rapid drop of a voltage across the additional winding. When the saturation is detected, the magnitude of the A.C. voltage applied to the output winding is increased. The phase angle characteristic of the magnetic phase shifter is determined under a low voltage condition prior to the saturation of the magnetic core, and after the saturation a high voltage is applied to the load resistor.

1. A multistage magnetic amplifier having an a.c. line, each stage comprising a pair of closed magnetic circuits and two branch circuits connected across said a.c. line, each branch circuit including in series a reactor winding respectively disposed on one of said magnetic circuits an impedance and two unidirectional devices, said devices in each of the stages being poled in the same direction and the devices in successive stages being respectively oppositely poled, each stage also comprising a control circuit including two control windings, one control winding being disposed on each magnetic circuit, one control winding being arranged to aid the flux induced by the reactor winding of one core and the other control winding being arranged to oppose the flux induced by the reactor winding on the other core, means conductively connecting the control circuit of the stages after the first stage to the branch circuits of the preceding stage at points between the two unidirectional devices in each branch circuit of the said preceding stage, and a single biasing resistor connected in shunt relation to the two unidirectional devices and the control circuit connection in one of said branch circuits.
