Abstract

Lead-in module for the supply of a low critical temperature superconducting electric load The module (3) is located inside a cryostat (1), it is fixed to its sealing cover (2) and it comprises a pair of metal conductors (6, 7) which pass through the cover (2) and whose lower ends are connected to the upper end of a high critical temperature superconducting module (8) comprising two conductors (9, 10) electrically connected to said pair of metal conductors (6, 7) and separated by an insulating core (11) making up a mechanical reinforcement, with an insulating structure (14) whose upper end (15) is fixed to the bottom of said cover (2) of the cryostat (1), surrounding the pair of metal conductors (6, 7) in a sealed manner until its junction (16) with the superconducting module (8), the structure (14) extending in an unsealed manner until at least the lower end of the superconducting module (8), the structure (14) comprising at its lower end fastening means (20) to support the electric load (4).
