Intended Audience: civil engineers, structural engineers, mechanical engineers, electrical engineers and other design and construction professional

PDH UNITS: 3

This course will provide you with an introduction to the methods, equipment and practices for inspection and maintenance of cathodic protection systems. Both galvanic (sacrificial anode) and impressed current systems are discussed. Course Outline 1. SCHEDULED PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE 2. UNSCHEDULED MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS This course will give professional engineers and others an introduction to the principles and practices that are the basis of corrosion protection system maintenance.
