Abstract
A low alternating current loss superconducting cable is provided, including a plurality of superconducting tapes spirally wound around a longitudinally extending core. The tapes are provided in a path between about 5° and 85° relative to the longitudinal axis of the core such that the tape completely covers the surface of the core. The tapes are generally parallel to each other and include first and second tapes that are adjacent to each other. The first and second tapes partially overlap each other.
