Along with the rapid growth of the national economy in China, the electric utility is faced with an ever rising demand for electricity and the problem to solve large capacity power transmission. Under the support of the High Technology Research & Development Program of China, a 1.5 kA/10.5 kV 10-m long 3-phases HTS transmission power cable and a 75-m long, 3-phase, 10.5 kV/1.5 kA HTS power cable have been developed successfully by the Institute of Electrical Engineering, Chinese Academy of Sciences. The 75-m long HTS power cable operates now at a local live distribution grid of 6.6 kV to supply electric power for Changtong's factory in Baiyin, Gansu Province. The cable operates stably and reliably over 7000 hours since December 2004. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
