A subsea cable system () for transfer of electric power to a subsea device is disclosed where the subsea cable system comprises a subsea cable () with a first end portion () and a second end portion (). The first end portion () is adapted for connection to a supply of electrical energy. The subsea cable () comprises at least a first supply cable (), a second supply cable () and at least one return cable () where the first supply cable (), the second supply cable () and the at least one return cable () each comprises a conductor element () for conduction of an electric current. The subsea cable system () further comprises a conductor transition element () comprising a conductor element () that is provided with at least a first conductor leg (), a second conductor leg () and a third conductor leg (). The first conductor leg () is connected to the conductor element () of the first supply cable (), the second conductor leg () is connected to the conductor element () of the second supply cable () and the third conductor leg () is connected to conductor element () of an end supply cable () that is connectable to a consumer device (). A method for supplying electrical power to a subsea consumer device of electricity is also disclosed.
