Introduction to Electrical Design for Cathodic Protection Systems: 4 PDH

Introduction to Electrical Design for Cathodic Protection Systems: 4 PDH

$24.00

This is an introduction to design and application of cathodic protection systems to mitigate corrosion in underground steel structures such as tanks and pipelines. Topics that will be covered in this course are the two principle methods used to mitigate corrosion, an introduction to the steps designing a sacrificial anode system and impressed current system and the field testing requirements needed for both of these systems. This course is intended for engineers with a current or prospective need to understand the fundamentals of protecting underground structures from corrosion using sacrificial anode and impressed current cathodic protection systems.Instructor: Juan Pesante, PE
