The electrical insulation system comprising composites and organic films for the prototype superconducting dipole magnets for the Large Hadron Collider currently under construction at CERN is presented. The electrical and mechanical aspects of the different components are described and some choices
The discharge of stored magnetic energy of sc magnets in the GJ range requires discharge powers up to several hundreds of MW. The present state-of-the-art of sc high current cables in the 50 kA range leads to voltages of several tens of kV. Forced flow cooled conductors allow a rigid winding constru
Research and development of superconducting fault-current limiters (SCFCL) is ongoing in the world. This paper summarizes the fruits of this work, focusing especially on the electrical insulation. Developments of SCFCLs carried out up to now are briefly described. The essential points to be consider
Recently, for improvement of the magnetic field of high temperature superconductor (HTS) apparatus, many studies on operating in the temperature range of 20-65 K with liquid helium or the thermal conducting method using cryocooler are actively reviewed. Also, the cooling method of using solid nitrog
