ABSTRACT:
A coupling arrangement for use in subsea electrical power distribution comprising a first coupling part (1a), which is provided with a first contact member (3a) arranged in a first contact housing (2a) and an attachment (4a) for a first power conduit, and a second coupling part (1b), which is provided with a second contact member (3b) arranged in a second contact housing (2b) and an attachment (4b) for a second power conduit to be connected to the first power conduit by means of the coupling arrangement. A contact element (10) is displaceably arranged in the contact housing (2b) of one of the coupling parts (1b) so as to be displaceable towards the contact member (3a) of the other coupling part (1a), when the contact housings (2a,2b) are secured to each other, from a first position, in which no electric connection between the contact members (3a,3b) is established by the contact element (10), and into a second position, in which the contact element (10) is establishing electric connection between the contact members.
