In that view, the reliability of the whole powering will be a major issue. The use of a redundancy and modularity may help increasing the overall machine availability. However, the reliability of the redundancy system must be high enough to add a significant improvement when compared to simple module systems. This paper suggests a comparative study of several modular and redundant configurations for optimising power converters reliability and draws some conclusion from what has been achieved in the LHC previous experience.

The economical advantage of FCM's in the range of 2 T bore field, continuously cycled at 0.5 Hz repetition rate, depends critically on the AC loss property of strand and cable. In this paper we report the results of the AC loss measurements that we have performed both on strands and cables manufactured for the CERN FCM prototype program. CERN EDS CLAS1 1087-1092 Phys.
