The superconducting coil is cooled to an extremely low temperature to bring it into a superconducting state (electrical resistance is zero), and it is energized before it is used. Therefore, resistance may be generated, that is, quench may be generated. Then, in this normal conduction state, there is a risk of abnormal evaporation of liquid helium and burning of the superconducting wire due to resistance heating. Therefore, in order to prevent this, when the superconductivity disappears, it is necessary to detect the loss of the superconductivity as soon as possible and reduce the coil current.

Here, the inductance of the superconducting coil (1) is L,
If the resistance is R and the current is I, the voltage V across the superconducting coil (1) is logically expressed by V = L dI / dI + RI. In this equation, the first term is the inductive voltage,
The second term is called the resistive voltage, and the resistive voltage of the second term does not exist because R = 0 in the superconducting state, the superconductivity disappears and a part of the superconducting coil (1) is in the normal conducting state. Occurs only when the condition is reached. Therefore, the presence or absence of the voltage of the second term can be detected by the voltmeter to know the presence or absence of the disappearance of superconductivity.
