A superconducting ac cable is considered that employs a split current conductor in which the superconductor is separated from the shunting substrate (base) of normal metal by a gap of particular thickness. An expression is obtained for the electrical losses with alternating current in the superconductor under an overload, with constant ac amplitude and constant superconductor temperature. This expression is used to compare the new current-conductor design with the conventional approach on the basis of the condition requiring recovery of superconductivity following an overload. In the working regime, without overload, hysteresis losses in the conductor are identical for the old and new designs.
