Abstract

A superconducting cable includes a core material, conductor layers formed by means of helically winding superconducting wires around the core material, electrically insulating layers, and magnetic shielding layers formed by means of helically winding superconducting wires around each of the electrically shielding layers. The superconducting wire is wound at the shortest pitch on the outermost conductor layer and is wound at the longest pitch on the outermost magnetic shielding layer.
