Zusammenfassung:An apparatus is described for measuring the temperature and magnetic field dependencies of the resistance and critical current of high‐temperature superconductors. The automated setup together with a set of inserts forms a universal system allowing for fast sample selection as well as for accurate complementary measurements at temperatures from 4.2 to 300 K and in high magnetic fields up to 30 T. Design details and low resistance measuring algorithm are presented and system peformance is discussed.
