SECTION 165:26-2-41. Compliance with corrosion protection requirements and manufacturer's specifications  


Latest version.
  •   Corrosion protection systems must be operated and maintained in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and specifications to provide continuous corrosion protection to the metal components of the storage tank system that are routinely in contact with the ground. If any portion of an AST or metallic piping comes in contact with an electrolyte (dirt, sand, gravel, etc.), cathodic protection should be applied to assist in the control of corrosion. The amount of metal in contact with the electrolyte will determine the appropriate selection of cathodic protection; either galvanic anodes or an impressed current system. The selected cathodic protection system will be designed by a corrosion expert or a qualified engineer trained in the field of cathodic protection.
