1. An apparatus for providing superconducting magnetic energy storage for both a first and a second asynchronous electric system comprising:

  • (a) a first converter connected to and associated with the first asynchronous electrical system, said first converter having a first and a second conductor output;

    (b) a second converter connected to and associated with the second asynchronous electrical system, said second converter having a first and a second conductor output, said second conductor output connected to said second conductor output of said first converter;

    (c) a interphase reactor having a first and a second end terminal and a tapped terminal therebetween, said first end terminal connected to said first output conductor of said first converter and said second end terminal connected to said first output conductor of said second converter;

    (d) a superconducting magnetic electric storage device connected between said tapped terminal of said interphase reactor and said second output conductors of said first and second converters; and

    (e) means for controlling said first and second converters whereby either asynchronous electric system may charge said superconducting magnetic energy storage device and either asynchronous electrical system may receive the energy stored therein.
