Cathodic protection has become a widely accepted method of controlling corrosion in underground lead sheath cable systems. Both sacrificial anode systems and rectifier type systems have been extensively used. Systems vary from single magnesium anodes placed in, or beneath, manholes to elaborate duct type anode arrays energized with rectifier units. This paper is primarily concerned with rectifier type systems energizing deep anodes.
