Summary

Since the discovery of high-temperature superconducting (HTSC) materials, elementary technologies of an HTSC cable system have been developed such as the manufacturing technology of a conductor wound with HTSC wires, cold dielectric properties, and thermally insulated pipes. HTSC cable models have also been constructed to evaluate these technologies. Tests are scheduled, using this cable system, such as: initial cooling test, continuous rated current-voltage loading tests, load fluctuation tests, cooling cycle test between room temperature and LN2 temperature, and overloading and overvoltage withstand tests. Through these tests, problems are expected to be may be difficult to foresee in individual part tests for development of an actual level HTSC power cable system.
