Abstract
A method for transmitting electrical energy is proposed in which between two electrical units electrical current is transmitted by means of a superconductive cable system (). The two ends of the superconductive cable system () are each connected in a current conducting manner to one of the electrical units. A normally conductive cable system. () is arranged parallel to the superconductive cable system (). The function of the superconductive cable system () is monitored by a control unit (). During normal operation. only one end of the normally conductive cable system () is connected in a voltage conducting manner to one of the electrical units. In case of a malfunction of the superconductive cable system (), a first signal () of the control unit () initially connects the other end of the normally conductive cable system () to the other electrical unit, so that the normally conductive cable system () becomes current conducting, and the superconductive cable system () is subsequently switched off by at least one of the electrical units.
