    Abstract : Geomagnetically Induced Currents (GICs) arise from fluctuations in Earths magnetic field and can reach alarmingly high levels and cause malfunctions or blackouts in the power grids in which they occur. AF Klercker Alaküla and Lindahl invented a patented GIC immune transformer which eliminates the effects of GICs, though it is not known how this implementation will affect the transformers behavior during un-symmetrical faults.
