Simple, Robust, Manufacturable, Low Resistance Joints for PIT-VIPER HTS Cables in Time-Varying Magnetic Fields

Exclusively Licensed

Described is a partitioned cable joint comprising a plurality of physically distributed joint elements with the plurality of joint elements taken together defining a joint length. Joint elements may have a first mounting region having a shape selected to accept one petal of superconducting cable and a second mounting region having a shape selected to accept one petal of a second conductor.
