Provides guidelines for the cathodic protection of internal surfaces of pipes and structures and gives information on the design, installation, operation and maintenance of cathodic protection systems.

This Standard provides guidelines for the cathodic protection of internal surfaces of pipes and structures including heat exchangers, hot water systems, clarifiers, ballast and water storage tanks, cooling conduits and reservoirs, that are in contact with natural waters including seawater and waters of near neutral pH.The Standard specifically covers the following subjects which relate to cathodic protection: (a) The design of structures requiring cathodic protection.(b) Coatings for use on internal surfaces.(c) Criteria for the choice of cathodic protection potential. (d) The design of cathodic protection systems.(e) The installation of cathodic protection systems.(f) The operation and maintenance of cathodic protection systems.NOTES:1 Guidance on the general use and design of cathodic protection systems and factors affecting the corrosion of internal surfaces are given in Appendix A.2 This Standard employs conventional (positive) current flow, for consistency with accepted practice, and uses the potential sign conventions specified in AS 1852. In order to understand the various electrochemical reactions which occur at electrodes during cathodic protection, it should be recognized that electron flow occurs in the opposite direction to conventional currect flow.
