A Pulsed Cable Test Facility (PCTF) under development at Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) is described. A split-pair pulsed superconducting coil, which is the central feature of the PCTF, has been tested. Other facilities for the PCZTF are a non-metallic cryostat, a 7-MW pulsed (2.9 MW rms) power supply for the pulsing of the split-pair coil, and a 50-kA, 5-V dc power supply for charging the testing pancake coils. Cable fabrication for the split-pair coil, winding of the coil, and initial test results of the coil are described.
