    Abstract: A superconducting device includes a superconducting cable having a plurality of superconducting tapes in a plurality of phases, including a first phase, and at least one further phase. One or more superconducting tapes of the first phase is in electrical contact with one or more superconducting tapes of the at least one further phase through at least one resistive barrier that prevents current from passing between the first phase and the at least one further phase in the absence of a voltage between one or more of the superconducting tapes of the first phase or the at least one further phase. The first phase is electrically connected in series to at least one further phase.

    Abstract: A superconducting device includes a first superconducting wire configured to carry a first current in a superconducting state, and to generate thermal energy upon occurrence of a hot spot during conduction. The device includes a second superconducting wire, thermally coupled to and electrically isolated from the first superconducting wire. The second superconducting wire is configured to conduct a second current in a superconducting state below, but sufficiently near its critical surface to be quenched to a non-superconducting state upon conduction of the thermal energy from the first superconducting wire.
