An MHD generator includes external electrical connectors between adjacent discrete electrodes in one wall of the generator duct. The electrical connection includes a circuit which adjusts the voltage between the connected adjacent electrodes to insure that the Hall voltage differential does not exceed the damaging breakdown voltage.
