We jointed Bi(Pb)-Sr-Ca-Cu-O multifilament tapes and evaluated their electrical properties. In order to improve connectivity of multifilarnents, single-filament tape was inserted between two multifilament tapes or multifilament was stepped by mechanical remove. The critical current ratio (CCR) and n-value of the jointed tapes were evaluated as a function of uniaxial pressure. It was observed that CCR and n-value were 24.8-29.0% and 2.5-2.8 for lap-jointed tape. On the other hand, the corresponding values were improved to 51.8-61.9% and 2.9-5.1 for three stepped jointed tape, and 63.4-67.9% and 3.4-4.2 for double MSM lap-jointed tape, respectively. These improvements are to be due to better interconnection between filaments of two tapes.

To apply HTS to AC devices, it is necessary that study theoretically and experimentally to analyze the AC losses. It should be investigated the theoretical mechanisms precede the actual experiments. Because the AC losses cause some complicated troubles in AC machines, we can design the machines properly. In this study, firstly we analyze the basic cause of AC losses by investigating the several loss factors, secondly measure the AC losses of HTS by using Magnetization. Technique and this results show that AC losses of HTS is tenuous than those of general materials used in power system. Consequently we can compare the actual results with the theoretical results. And we find that AC losses of HTS are related to the amplitude of external magnetic field and the frequency. Through this study, we find that it is possible to apply the results by Magnetization. Technique to the AC power system, to the design of AC machine, to design of HTS proper to the foretold AC losses.
