Overview
Impressed current cathodic protection uses an MMO coated titanium anode driven by a remote rectifier, delivering adjustable current for large or high-resistivity structures. An ICCP system is the standard choice for pipelines, plants and tanks where sacrificial anodes cannot supply enough drive.
System Components
A typical installation pairs a durable mixed metal oxide anode with a transformer rectifier and reference electrode. Where soil conditions vary, designers often combine impressed current with magnesium anode, zinc anode or aluminum anode retrofit segments.
