Summary:Magnet cabling technology has been developed for Bi-based HTS composite wire. Concentric round cabling as well as Rutherford cabling has been proven in > 100 m lengths. For Bi-2223 precursor composite wire, post-cabling deformation is required to achieve high transport engineering current density ( J e), and early results have reached 5500 A/cm 2 at 77 K and self-field. Cable-and-deform conductor has similar magnetic field retention and anisotropy as conventional, nontransposed multifilament Bi-2223 composites with comparable J e. HTS magnet cabled composites have great potential for providing high I c, J e, and reducing fabrication cost.
