They soon provedto be one of the most simple, the most insightful, and the most popular instruments that studentsuse in an AC power laboratory at this university. Their primary focus in this Energy Systems IIlab is for the synchronization between an AC generator and the local power grid. When federallegislation made their incandescent light bulbs obsolete in 2014, a replacement instrument designbecame necessary. The original instrument itself was so effective that there was never anyquestion whether its
