✦ Synopsis

Future applications of superconductivity within power systems require reliable high voltage leads from ambient air into the LHe-region. The main electrical, thermal, and thermo-mechanical design criteria are discussed, and guiding rules are given for the construction of such leads. Practically feasible designs are described which are based on the experience with various tested prototype leads.
