Building & Civil Engineering | An electric system for prevention of rust, corrosion, and pitting of steel and iron surfaces in contact with water wherein a low-voltage current is made to flow through a liquid or soil in contact with the metal in such a manner that the external electromotive force renders the metal structure cathodic, and concentrates corrosion on auxiliary anodic parts used for the purpose.

Electrical Engineering | An electrochemical action conferring immunity upon a metal by an appropriate cathodic polarisation. Source: European Union. (references) |
Energy | A method of preventing oxidation of the exposed metal in structures by imposing between the structure and the ground a small electrical voltage. (references) |
Environment | A technique to prevent corrosion of a metal surface by making it the cathode of an electrochemical cell. (references) |
