Abstract

This invention concerns a cryo-cooled electrical conduction network. The conduction network has an electrical network divided into two or more conductive sections, each section comprising electrical equipment (24, 28). The conductive network also has a coolant network for maintaining the temperature of a coolant in each section. The electrical equipment (24, 28) and a corresponding portion of the coolant network of each section is housed in a section enclosure (10, 12, 14). The coolant network includes a coolant interface (40) located between each section, wherein the coolant interface (40) is housed in an intermediate enclosure (16, 18, 20, 22) that is isolatable from the section enclosures (10, 12, 14) in the electrical conduction network.
