Summary

The current lead consists of the vertical lead and the connection lead. The vertical lead was designed with a heat leak of 1.2 W/kA at a helium flow rate of 0.06 g/(s.kA). The measured heat leak satisfied the designed value. The connection lead was made from copper pipe soldered with NbTi superconducting wires. The pipe was stabilized by the superconducting wires and a cooling channel. The current lead was operated up to 60 kA. The design and the performance test results of 50 kA current leads are reported.
