Theory behind Impressed current cathodic protection
Impressed current cathodic protection is a method for ship’s hull protection. But, before discussing the Impressed current cathodic protection, its important to know the theory and history of cathodic protection. Cathodic Protection is a method of controlling corrosion and is based on electrochemical process. In this method, the corrosion of the cathode is achieved by […]
Operation of Impressed current cathodic protection
Earlier, We had discussed about the theory behind the use of Impressed current cathodic protection. To refer the aforesaid post, visit https://electricalfundablog.com/blog/?p=731 . Lets discuss how the operation of Impressed current cathodic protection is carried out practically with equipments. The power to the unit is fed from the 440V AC, 60 Hz, 3 phase supply. However, […]
