Système de protection cathodique d'une conduite basé sur l'utilisation d'un courant direct imposé, contrôlé par une source de courant DC (redresseur) circulant entre un réseau d'anode et la conduite. 3, record 2, French, - courant%20impos%C3%A9
Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 CONT
La protection cathodique d'un ouvrage métallique en contact avec un électrolyte consiste à placer cet ouvrage à un potentiel électrique négatif tel que la corrosion devienne thermodynamiquement impossible, c'est-à-dire sous l'effet d'un courant cathodique. Il existe deux façons d'abaisser le potentiel d'une structure métallique au dessous du seuil d'immunité: la protection par anode sacrificielle et la protection par courant imposé. 4, record 2, French, - courant%20impos%C3%A9
