Description
For the NED program, two Rutherford-type cables were already made on the basis of PIT strands: a 40-strand ~27 mm wide cable by LBNL and a 14-strand ~ 10 mm wide cable for the Short Model Coil program at CERN.
The characterization results for strands extracted from both cables are summarized and the cabling critical current degradation is discussed as function of the heat treatment schedule.
