Abstract: The paper describes the authors’ further preoccupation towards an extension of the minimum energetic principle in stationary regime established for the d.c. and a.c. circuits, to the linear magnetic circuits and to the electric circuit with capacitors. Is tried to give an interpretation to the results obtained from the minimization of an energetic functional corresponding to the circuit under study.
