A cable-in-conduit conductor (CICC) is a type of jacketed electrical cable used produce low-temperature superconducting magnets. The unique construction of a CICC enables the use of liquid helium to cool the wires to superconducting temperatures, while achieving other requirements of superconducting magnetic coils . CICC's consist of superconducting wires twisted into strands and bundled into a cable which is jacketed by a non-superconducting material.
