Abstract: An arrangement for an electrically conducting connection of a superconductive electric cable (1) with a cable having normal conductivity at room temperature is provided, which includes a passage (D) with an electric conductor (5) surrounded by a thermal insulation (6). The conductor (1) of the superconductive cable (1) is connected to an end of the conductor (5) of the passage (D), at whose other end a cable having normal conductivity can be connected. On the end of the superconductive cable (1) intended to connect to the conductor (5) of the passage (D) electrode (4) is mounted serving the electric field control. At least in the area of the electrode (4) a cryostat is present which surrounds it, which is constructed as a circumferentially closed sheath of electrically insulating material with a vacuum free, thermal insulation. The end of the sheath facing the passage (D) is placed during the state of operation of the arrangement at high voltage potential, while the other end is connected to ground potential.
