Abstract

A transmission system is provided with a superconductive cable having three phase conductors and a cryostat, surrounding the phase conductors, and encasing a hollow space, for conducting a cooling agent. For the three phase conductors, a common neutral conductor is provided, being made of electrically normally conducting material, carried out as insulating round conductor and placed outside the cryostat and next to it. The cryostat is made of a circumferentially enclosed, thermally insulated sheath.

Claims (7)

1. Transmission system comprising:

a superconductive cable having three phase conductors; and

a cryostat surrounding the phase conductors and enclosing a hollow space for guiding a cooling agent,

wherein a neutral conductor, common to all three phase conductors, is provided, and

wherein the cryostat includes a circumferentially enclosed, thermally insulated sheath,

wherein the neutral conductor is an electrically normally conducting material and is arranged outside of the cryostat, and

the neutral conductor is constructed as an insulated round conductor and is placed in a separate protective pipe.
