Cathodic Protection Cable


Description
Cathodic Protection Cable (CP Cable or CPC) is usually a stranded conductor insulated with HMWPE.

For added protection against corrosive gases and brackish water, a Halar (ECTFE) or Kynar (PVDF) insulation covered by an HMWPE jacket can be used.


Application
CP Cable is used as direct earth burial DC feeder cable in cathodic protection systems to protect against galvanic and electrolytic corrosion of metallic objects - such as storage tanks, pipelines, wells and ocean vessels - that are buried or submerged in water.

Features
It has excellent abrasion, crush, chemical, oil, sunlight and moisture resistance. Both the Halar and Kynar insulations offer additional resistance to corrosive gases and brackish water, and can be used for deep anode ground-bed installations.
