Abstract :
The hot-spot temperature is estimated for a Collider Quadrupole Magnet (CQM) connected in series with Collider Dipole Magnets (CDM´s) and for a quench appearing in CQM. An active protection system is studied where all magnets except the CQM´s have heaters. These heaters cause a spot quench in each of the CDM outer layer conductors. Results indicate that the scheme is safe for a total induced quench time delay of less than 230 ms
