Abstract
A superconducting coil system includes an excitation power source, a superconducting coil, a DC circuit breaker connected in series between the excitation power source and the superconducting coil to disconnect them when quenching occurs, a protective resistor connected in a parallel manner to the superconducting coil for dissipating the energy accumulated in the superconducting coil when the quenching occurs, and a switch provided as a bypass of the DC circuit breaker, the switch being closed during the normal operation to pass the energy from the excitation power source to the superconducting coil through a resistor and being opened when the quenching occurs.
