We investigated necessary amount of copper or silver stabilizer added to YBCO conductor by numerical calculation to protect the conductor in a coil of dry windings from damages caused by quenches. The coil is assumed to be operated at 20K, 40K and 77K and hot-spot temperature of the conductor during energy dump sequence is calculated. The necessary amount of the stabilizer and overall conductor current density of the conductor including the stabilizer were calculated to suppress the hot spot temperature below a certain threshold depending on the operation temperature.
