The long coaxial inner magnetically insulated transmission line (MITL) is considered as a possible transmission line to guide power to deep underground high yield fusion experiments. The considered dimensions are of order 10-15 meters in length, 60 cm radius, and 6 mm AK gap, with peak current 60 MA and peak pulse 100 ns. In designing such a MITL, the main concern is power loss due to low density plasmas being produced by high electric fields and temperatures. It is found that a 10m-long prototypical MITL is a viable design, with maximum current losses below 10% and temperature rise due to electron impact not exceeding 400°C, thereby avoiding thermal desorption of contaminants and the formation of low density plasmas.
