Recently, small-sized superconducting magnetic storage($\mu$SMES) coils become commercially as an energy storage device for a power conditioner. In design and fabrication of the $\mu$SMES coils, to determine optimum current capacity of the superconducting(SC) conductors is one of the important things. We thus investigated the effect of conductor's current capacity, current density, and stability on the coil's maximum stored energy density in consideration of AC losses and switching device's capacities in a power converter. The results show that the smaller current capacity of the SC conductors is preferred for the $\mu$SMES coils but can increase their induced voltage excessively.
