  • Patent number: 9397486
    Abstract: A system and method for coupling electrical power subsea. The system comprises a subsea electrical distribution system having at least one modular subsea circuit breaker assembly. The modular circuit breaker comprises a busbar enclosure housing a busbar. In one embodiment, the bus bar enclosure is pressurized with sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) gas. At least one circuit breaker enclosure housing a subsea circuit breaker is secured to the busbar enclosure. The interior of the busbar enclosure may be sealed from the interior of the circuit breaker enclosure. The circuit breaker enclosure may be pressurized with SF6 gas.

  • Patent number: 9343880
    Abstract: A system and method for coupling electrical power subsea. The system comprises a subsea electrical distribution system having at least one modular subsea circuit breaker assembly. The modular subsea circuit breaker assembly may be coupled to sources of power and/or subsea loads via one or more subsea power cable harness assemblies. The modular subsea circuit breaker assembly has at least electrical connector. Each subsea power cable harness assembly has a corresponding electrical connector. At least one of these electrical connectors is extendable to engage an electrical connector opposite it.
