Abstract
Potential applications for superconductors exist in transformers, transmission lines, generators, motors, circuit breakers, and rectifiers. Superconducting electromagnets also promise savings in power and weight when used with controlled thermonuclear fusion devices and magnetohydrodynamic generators. Discussion, however, is limited to recent developments in power apparatus
