A power supply system (1001) according to the present disclosure supplies power to a relay apparatus (2) on a branching submarine cable branched from a trunk submarine cable by a branching apparatus (1). The power supply system (1001) according to the present disclosure supplies power to the relay apparatus (2) by a branching power supply path (BE) connected to a trunk power supply path (TE) provided in a trunk submarine cable. When power is supplied to the relay apparatus (2), the branching power supply path (BE) causes a current flowing from one side of the trunk submarine cable to flow to the relay apparatus (2), and then causes the current to turns back so that the current flows to the other side of the trunk submarine cable.
