A wide range of civil and industrial applications have used these systems to
prevent corrosion for many years. They are typically installed during original
construction, major expansions or upgrades. Our systems are typically
designed to operate for 30 years or longer.

Impressed Current
In many applications, the potential difference between the galvanic/sacrificial
anode and the steel structure is not enough to generate sufficient current for
protection to occur. In these cases, a power supply (rectifier) is used to
generate larger potential differences, enabling more current to flow to the
structure being protected. This is referred to as an impressed current cathodic
protection (ICCP) system.
Design
To be the most effective and economical, CP systems must be designed
properly. CP design is the scientific discipline involving:
