Covers basic issues on stability and protection. Major topics in stability include: cryostable vs. adiabatic windings; current-sharing temperature; disturbances; energy margins; acoustic emission technique. Protection: self-protection magnet; normal zone propagation velocities; active protection techniques. Briefly, no-insulation and metal-as-insulation winding techniques for REBCO tape pancake coils.
