Abstract
Superconducting cables are described by current sheets using the continuum model of W. Carr Jr. [1] and assuming an anisotropic conductivity. Two different situations are considered: a) finite length of cable in spatially independent magnetic field; b) infinitely long cable in a periodical magnetic field
