Abstract :
The design of a superconducting magnetic energy storage coil is presented. The purpose of this coil is to stabilize low frequency power oscillations in long high voltage ac power lines. The practical application for this specific coil will be the installation in the Pacific intertie between Washington State and Los Angeles, California. The guiding principles of the design are performance, fabrication economy and reliability.
