One special form of the nullor that has been found to be particularly useful in active networks is the three-terminal nullor (...). However, most of the three-terminal nullors realized so far have one of their terminals permanently committed to ground (...).

If the constant voltage and current are identically zero, then the two-port generator coincides with the nullor. 2, record 2, English, - nullor
