This paper presents the first benchmarking test results of ITER correction coil (CC) conductor short samples CCCN1 and CCCN2. The Chinese first CC conductor short sample CCCN1 was prepared and tested at the Institute of Plasma Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences (ASIPP). The second CC conductor short sample CCCN2 was prepared at ASIPP and tested at the SULTAN laboratory. The TCS of the two samples was measured at the peak magnetic field of 4.1 T and at a current of 10 kA. A TCS of 7.02 K was measured at ASIPP and a TCS of 7.20 K was measured at the SULTAN laboratory. The calculated results of the short samples are also presented for a comparison to the measured results in this paper.
