Talk:Magnetic monopole (crackpot)

Until now, no magnetic monopoles have ever been discovered. Nonetheless, if such monopoles could actually exist, they would cause an unprecedented revolution in electrical engineering. For instance, if one could replace the iron core of a transformer with an identical core that would be made of a substance containing free magnetic monopoles, in other words, of a 'magnetic conductor', this transformer could work as well on direct current as on alternating current, perhaps better on DC,judging from the latest theories claiming that magnetic monopoles are much heavier than electrically charged elementary particles.
