Popis: The design of the six coil superconducting toroidal magnet, which is to beinstalled at CEBAF, Virginia, was reported by Oxford Instruments and CEBAF at the Applied Superconductivity Conference in Chicago in 1992. This paper outlines the progress being made in the manufacture and describes the testing at Oxford Instruments of some of the first coils produced. Individual coils are being tested to full current rating which generates a field of 2.8 T; this is just below the peak field in the six coil array (3.5 T). The auxiliary systems — the service module, the power supply, and the control and instrumentation system — will also be fully tested before shipment.
