Abstract

An arrangement with at least one superconductive cable (4) and a first cryostat (K1) surrounding the cable. A second cryostat (K2) is formed around the first cryostat (K1) coaxially with and at a distance from the first cryostat (K1) for conducting a second cooling agent therethrough. The second cryostat (K2) is composed of two pipes (12, 13) which are arranged coaxially and at a distance from each other and, where a thermal insulation (14) is enclosed between the pipes, and where during operation of the arrangement a liquefied gas, having a temperature of 112K or less, is conducted through the cryostat (K2).
