Load excitation at the superconducting cable test facility
Abstract
The superconducting cable test facility was constructed to evaluate and demonstrate flexible superconducting power transmission cables under realistic conditions. Power supplies were installed to excite two superconducting cables either separately or simultaneously. The cables formed a straight run of 100 m with a pair of terminations rated for full current and voltage located at the east and west ends of the cable enclosure. The design and operation of the test facilities are discussed.
