Conceptual design of the Cryogenic Electrical Feedboxes and the Superconducting Links of LHC

Powering the superconducting magnets of the LHC arcs and long straight sections is performed with more than 1000 electrical terminals supplying currents ranging from 120 A to 13’000 A and distributed in 44 cryogenic electrical feedboxes (DFB). Where space in the LHC tunnel is sufficient, the magnets...

Sumario:Powering the superconducting magnets of the LHC arcs and long straight sections is performed with more than 1000 electrical terminals supplying currents ranging from 120 A to 13’000 A and distributed in 44 cryogenic electrical feedboxes (DFB). Where space in the LHC tunnel is sufficient, the magnets are powered by locally installed cryogenic electrical feedboxes. Where there is no space for a DFB, the current will be supplied to the magnets by superconducting links (DSL) connecting the DFBs to the magnets on distances varying from 76 m to 510 m.
