Abstract
A subsea connector () is provided for joining a first cable () having a first minimum bending radius (MBR) and a second cable () having a second minimum bending radius (MBR). The subsea connector is arranged with a first joint device () for connection with the first cable and a second joint device () for connection with the second cable (). The subsea connector comprises a conductive member () for transfer of electric power between the first and the second cable (), the conductive member having, in an installed position, a U-shape configuration and the radius of curvature of the subsea connector is less than or equal to the first and second minimum bending radii such that at least a portion of the first cable () extending from connection with the first joining device () is arranged essentially parallel with at least a portion of the second cable () extending from connection with the second joint device (). The invention also concerns a cable arrangement, a junction box and a method for assembly and installation of a flowline arrangement.
