STRAY CURRENT

Domain	Definition
Mining	A. The use of direct current electric power in most coal mines presents a problem of corrosion caused by an electrolytic action on pipes. Where the track is employed as a conductor of electricity in this type of power system, the voltage drop produces a difference in potential between the track and earth or other structures that may serve as a conductor, such as pipelines. This condition may cause an electric current to flow in pipelines that form a parallel path with the track system. b. Electric current that is introduced in the earth by leakage ofindustrial currents. (references)
