Abstract
In setting up a magnet installation considerable engineering effort is needed for both the power supply and the cooling plant. For a 100-kOe facility we have seen that the power required is around 2 MW, and for 250 kOe around 12 MW, which is within the realm of heavy industrial equipment. Yet for some experiments the stability demanded may be that of precision laboratory equipment, being parts in 105 or even better for periods of a few minutes.
