As the critical current of a single a.c. superconducting wire cannot be more than several tens of amperes, such single wires (strands) are bundled and twisted to make cables with a large current capacity. As the result of the twisting and bundling, a longitudinal magnetic field parallel to a strand

โฆ Synopsis
The a.c. quench current level of a superconducting cable when formed into a coil is, in general, lower than that of a short sample. The current in the coil induces a selfmagnetic field on the superconducting winding. It was found from our experiments that the transition from the superconducting state to the normal one in a superconducting coil originates in that part of the winding where the self-magnetic flux density is estimated to be the largest. It is concluded that degradation of the a.c. quench current level in the superconducting coil is mainly brought about by the influence of the self-magnetic field.
