Power transmission, conversion, control, and regulation aspects of the Tara tandem mirror 24 mva magnet system are discussed in detail. The magnet coil set, magnetic field configuration and support vacuum chamber are described. It is shown that a complete turn key pulse magnet power system has been built for under $21/kW.
