An aspect of the present invention relates to a floating offshore structure (100), comprising a floating foundation (2) and at least one electrical system (1), in particular a wind turbine (1), mounted thereon, wherein the electrical system (1) is directly or indirectly electrically connected to an electrical cable assembly (3), that is suspended from the floating foundation (2) and, in an intended state of use, follows an underwater trajectory towards a seabed (5). The floating offshore structure (100) comprises a cable release system (7) adapted to release the suspension of the electrical cable assembly (3) from the floating foundation (2) based on an activation signal.The floating offshore structure (100) according to the invention allows for an easier restoration of the electrical cable assembly (3), for example after a mooring system failure.
