Splice requirements Splice mechanical integrity and robustness (define number of thermal and
powering cycles for fatigue testing, where needed)
Additional Cu stabilizer continuity
Splice resistance Huge margin of acceptable heating power when operating Nb-Ti/Cu splices in
liquid He.
The splice resistance and its reproducibility is a useful indicator of the reliability of the splice manufacturing processes.
Splice resistance specification [1] E. Todesco, L. Bottura, H. Prin, Y. Leclerc., S. Feher, “BUSBARS FOR WP3 CONNECTED TO DFX”,
Maximum current imbalance in the conductor introduced by resistance variations of the individual wire or cable resistances
Splice insulation dielectric requirements
Splice, insulation and tooling dimensions
Possibility to disconnect and reconnect the splices in the LHC tunnel with standard tools

Splice design recommendations
Robust splice design
As similar as possible to proven LHC splice designs
Easy and reproducible splice manufacturing processes (all
WP3 splices are soft soldered lap splices)
Possibility of in situ non destructive testing
Have big critical current conductor margin
Ideally Cu cross section in the conductor is sufficient, and
no additional stabiliser splices are required
To have good current sharing between all wires
Equal resistance between all cables of a splice
Splice overlap length equals the cable transposition pitch length, or
multiples of it

Flat busbar to flat busbar splice
Three different lap splice configurations possible
FNAL soldered both busbars directly, resistances of four splices
ranged from 0.14 nΩ to 0.42 nΩ
Resistance of splice and current homogeneity can be improved
when cables are interleaved.

Flat busbar splice resistance
Measured MQXF lead cable splice, 120 mm overlap resistance: R=0.34 n (calculated from =888±102 s (assuming
a loop inductance of 306 nH).
Expected resistance for an interleaved splice is R=0.17 n One additional cable between loop
cables: R=0.60 n (=513 s, 306 nH).
Two additional cables between loop cables: R=0.89 n (=342 s, 306 nH).
Three additional cables between loop cables: R=1.21 n (= 252 s, 306 nH).

Questions concerning the conductor
Is the 18 Cu conductor to the diode module already defined?
Are the splices to the diodes already defined, are there bolted pressure splices?
Is it foreseen to have a 13 kA round cable, is there already a design of this cable, or will the 18 kA round cable also be used in the 13 kA circuit?
Is the flat 13 kA bus a LHC double cable, or a single cable with additional Cu stabiliser?
Is the flat 2 kA busbar a double cable?
