Submarine cable systems are widely used for communication and power transmission. These cables are laid on the seabed to carry telecommunication signals from one land-based station to another across oceans. Submarine power cables are laid on ocean beds, straits, or rivers to transmit electricity at high voltages over long distances. They are primarily used to connect the mainland with large islands, power grids with oil & gas platforms, and to transmit electricity across countries or islands.
