A new contactless inductive method is used to generate currents in large YBaCuO rings at liquidhyphen;nitrogen temperature up to 100 kHz. With this method the transport current in the ring is directly measured. A study of the currenthyphen;voltage curves for currents above the critical current has been made in three rings of fixed size but of different oxygen content. The experimental results indicate the occurrence of the skin effect.
