cables carrying either AC or DC current, and cables carrying no current or signal at all. The system can undertake submarine cable surveys in the shallow water depths that are typical of offshore wind farms, interconnector power cables and coastal communications cables. The Innovatum system produces reports and charts showing accurate cable route and depth of burial. This data is required by installation contractors, owners and regulatory authorities, to ensure that the cable is properly buried and not in danger of exposure and damage. With thegrowth inmarine renewableenergy projects there is a growing requirement for robust power cables and connectors to withstand the harsh subsea environment. For many tidal stream and wave energy devices, connectors must be capable of mating and breaking reliably and in complete safety under water. They must also maintain connection in a range of temperatures and sea conditions, including salt, dirty and turbid water, and at elevated pressures due to depth of submersion. RMSpumptools high- and medium-voltage connector range has been in service with customers for over 25 years. The connectors Robust subsea connections
