Abstract :
ELECTROLYTIC CORROSION is recognized universally as a major problem in the maintenance of underground metallic structures. This is particularly true in the case of underground cable and piping systems. The subject is of a primary interest to cable and pipe-operating utilities, and a great deal of study and research is being devoted to electrolytic corrosion by utility engineers throughout the country.
