During 1989 and the beginning of 1990, approximately 150.000 feet of cable was manufactured for use in the SSC Model Dipole Magnet Program. The wire for the cable was made to SSC specifications by three different manufacturers. The cable was made at New England Electric Wire on the SSC Production Cabling Machine, under supervision of either SSC Laboratory personnel or the wire manufacturer's representative. All the cable produced far SSC model dipoles was subjected to rigorous inspection in order to insure that ths magnet construction and performance would be predictable. The cable dimensions were measured at intervals of 10 feet or less with a cable measuring machine. Electrical properties were measured on samples from one end of each cable length. Critical current degradation due to cabling was checked by measuring the critical currents of the •wires used to make the cable and comparing these with the cable critical current. The results of die dimensional and electrical measurements will be discussed and compared with the SSC
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
