When the superconducting magnet having the above-mentioned current-carrying wire is excited and demagnetized, when the superconducting coil is in the permanent current mode and a coil quench occurs while the power is being supplied, the following mechanism is used. The superconducting coil energizing wire is blown. In the connection diagram, when the superconducting coil is quenched in the permanent current mode when energized in the excitation / demagnetization pattern as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the superconducting coil becomes normal conducting and generates heat as well as resistance. At this time, the current supplied from PL1 continues to flow to PL2 via the permanent current switch PCS because the permanent current switch PCS is closed.

Even if the current-carrying wire is not molded in the superconducting coil, the temperature around the current-carrying wire rises due to the heat generated by the coil quenching, and the resistance is generated in the current-carrying wire in the same manner as above, causing the power supply current to continue to melt and melt down.
