Abstract

A system and method for coupling electrical power subsea. The system comprises a subsea electrical distribution system having at least one subsea circuit breaker assembly. The subsea circuit breaker assembly comprises a modular subsea busbar assembly configured to receive a plurality of modular cubsea circuit breaker assemblies and at least one modular subsea circuit breaker assembly secured to the modular subsea busbar assembly. The modular subsea circuit breaker assemblies may be coupled by subsea power cables to a source or power, an electrical load, or other subsea circuit breaker assemblies.
