Abstract :
A small scale superconducting coil system has been built at the BIPM. It is a first prototype to study the moving phase of a watt balance where the test coil is superconducting. This preliminary work is a first necessary step towards the development of the expected superconducting BIPM watt balance. The apparatus is presented and first measurements are discussed.
