Basics of Cathodic Protection

Types of Cathodic Protection Systems
1. Galvanic (Sacrificial Anode)
2. Impressed Current Cathodic Protection (ICCP)
Key components include anodes, power sources for ICCP, cabling, and reference electrodes for monitoring. The system is designed based on environmental conditions and requires regular maintenance to ensure effectiveness. Common applications include protecting pipelines, tanks, ship hulls, and offshore platforms from corrosion.
