Cathodic protection groundbeds.
Groundbed potential profile plotting.
Groundbeds are designed to inject Direct Current electricity into the ground.
As corrosion engineers we must
In either case the ground at the centre of the groundbed is more positive that the surrounding ground. It has a higher electrical potential and will show this on a digital voltmeter.
It is good to be able to imagine a groundbed as a pile of electricity and this can be displayed by a computer using Excell.
