Abstract
A current lead () for connecting a superconducting load system (), in particular, a magnet coil, to a current feed point () that is at a higher temperature than the load system () comprises a flat, elongated carrier () and a plurality of mechanical and electrical parallel high-temperature superconductors (HTSC) (), wherein the HTSCs () are disposed side by side on the carrier (). The carrier () is made of stainless steel, and a plurality of HTSCs () are each disposed side by side on two opposite carrier () sides of the carrier. The carrier () is constituted in the shape of a plate with cut-outs (-). The current lead has a high current capacity and low thermal conductivity and provides improved emergency conduction properties in case of failure of the superconductivity in the HTSC.
