Remarks:
1. When earthing was connected to tank and temporary cable was connected to negative
header cable in junction box, fuses were getting blown off.
2. When earthing was disconnected from the tank and temporary cable was connected to
negative header cable in junction box, then fuses didn’t blow off. But for an output of 15
V, a current of almost 15 Amp was flowing, which indicates lower tank to earth
resistance.

AMRAN CPSS L.L.C
PROJECT-P3072
8.1.1.3. CONCLUSION & RECOMMENDATION
a) Negative Header Cable
Conclusion
 It was found that, negative header cable between tank and negative cable terminal in
junction box is damaged and no CP current is being drained.
 That is, external bottom plate of the tank is without cathodic protection since cable is
damaged.
Recommendation
 It is recommended to replace the existing negative header cable between tank and
negative cable terminal in junction box with new one.
 Since, CP system has not been in function for unknow period, it’s also recommended
to check the thickness of tank surfaces to meet the project allowable requirement.
b) High Silicon Anodes
Conclusion
 Condition of anodes seems to be OK as anodes were discharging the current when
temporary cable connection was done between tank and negative cable terminal in
junction box.
Recommendation
 However, further testing is recommended once damaged negative header cable is
replaced between tank and negative cable terminal in junction box.
c) Permanent Reference Electrode and Coupon
Conclusion
 Condition of permanent reference electrode and coupon seems to be OK as tank to
permanent reference electrode and coupon to permanent reference electrode
potentials got increased to more than -1000 mV, when temporary cable connection
was done between tank and negative cable terminal in junction box.
Recommendation
 However, further testing is recommended once damaged negative header cable is
replaced between tank and negative cable terminal in junction box.
d) Tank’s Earthing
Conclusion
 Tank is connected with 5 Nos. of earthing. 4 no of main earthing and one connected
through staircase.

AMRAN CPSS L.L.C
PROJECT-P3072
 When earthing was connected to tank and temporary cable was connected to
negative header cable in junction box, fuses were getting blown off when TR Unit was
switched ON.
 When earthing was disconnected from the tank and temporary cable was connected
to negative header cable in junction box, then fuses didn’t blow off. But for an output
of 15 V, a current of almost 15 Amp was flowing, which indicates lower tank to earth
resistance.
Recommendation
 It is recommended to provide Polarization Cell Replacement (PCR) or Solid-State
Device (SSD) between earthing and tank. These devices block DC current (i.e., it
blocks CP Current to pass through earthing) and allow AC current (lightening current
etc.…) to pass through it and get grounded through earthing.
e) Junction Box
Conclusion
 Junction box is fully corroded. Doors are corroded and broken.
Recommendation
 It is recommended to replace the existing corroded junction box with a new junction
box at same location.
f) Transformer Rectifier Unit (TR Unit)
Conclusion
 Enclosure of the TR Unit is quite corroded.
 Doors of the TR Unit are corroded and broken.
 Voltage Regulator is not fine tuning and maximum voltage cannot be reached even
when regulator is fully tunned.
 Fuses are getting blown off whenever there is adjustment in voltage through voltage
regulator.
 TR Unit is 16 years old
 Current Requirement of TR Unit.
 Tank native potentials is around -200 mV which is much lower compared with new
steel tanks which has around -500 mV. This indicates that tank bottom plate has quite
corroded and a very high amount of current will be required to raise the protected
polarized potentials to -850 mV. Hence, 100 mV polarization shift criteria can be used
to achieve protection level and which can be obtained through this existing TR Unit.
Recommendation
 Functionality of TR Unit can be maintained by having slightly higher rated fuses and
by changing the voltage regulator. However, physical condition of TR Unit is very
much corroded and it’s not recommended to use for longer period as it has live
components in it and doors and enclosers are getting corroded day by day.

AMRAN CPSS L.L.C
PROJECT-P3072
 CP System is already 16 years old, based on future operational requirement,

company should take the decision for its replacement with a higher current capacity
(approx. 30 V/30 A) to meet the present and future current demand to maintain the
protection level at the tank bottom plate.

a) High Silicon Anodes
Conclusion
 Condition of anodes seems to be OK as anodes are discharging the current.
b) Permanent Reference Electrode
Conclusion
 Other than reference electrode no 4, all other reference electrodes are working fine.
 At most of the locations (reference electrode), polarized potentials of tank internal are
more than -800 mV and tank is cathodically protected.
 TR unit voltage capacity is 50 V, however, Voltage regulator could not further
increase from 11.2 V. Due to this current could not be increased further to obtain (-)
800 mV protection level at all the reference electrodes.
c) Junction Box
Conclusion
 Physical condition of Junction box is OK for short life of 5 to 6 years.
d) Transformer Rectifier Unit (TR Unit)
Conclusion

Recommendation
company should take the decision for its replacement with same or higher current
capacity (approx. 50 V/30 A) to meet the future current requirement to maintain

8.2.1.2. INVESTIGATION OF TR UNIT
The below power control card is not working and due to this there is no voltage or current
discharge from TR Unit.

AMRAN CPSS L.L.C
PROJECT-P3072
Voltage on the TR Unit was increased up to 26 V.

Voltage across input terminal of power control card i.e. voltage at terminal P21 and N21 is 26 V.
But, voltage across output terminal of power control card i.e. voltage at terminal P22 and N21
is 100 to 200 mV and keeps on fluctuating, which indicates that, there is no output voltage from
power control card.
Same was checked in power control card of circuit 1 of tank-A and there, same voltages were
measured at both input terminal (P11 & N11) and output terminal (P12 & N11) of power control
card. Any change in voltage through voltage regulator has same impact on both input and
output terminals of power control card of circuit-1 of tank-A.
Hence, power control card of circuit 2 i.e. of tank-B is not functioning.
Conclusion
 Considering the similar condition that of tank-A, anodes may be working fine.
Recommendation
 However, further testing is recommended once TR Unit is functional and discharging
the current.
b) Permanent Reference Electrode and Coupon
Conclusion
 Considering the similar condition that of tank-A, permanent reference electrodes may
be working fine.
Recommendation
 However, further testing is recommended once TR Unit is functional and discharging

 Power control card is not working and needs replacement for functioning.
 Current Requirement of TR Unit.
 Tank native potentials is around -200 mV which is much lower compared with new
steel tanks which has around -500 mV. This indicates that tank bottom plate has quite
corroded and a very high amount of current will be required to raise the protected
polarized potentials to -850 mV. Hence, 100 mV polarization shift criteria can be used
to achieve protection level and which can be obtained through this existing TR Unit.
Recommendation
 For immediate and basic functionality, power control card, fuses with slightly higher
current rating and voltage regulator needs to be replaced in the TR Unit.
 However, physical condition of TR Unit is very much corroded and it’s not
recommended to use for longer period as it has live components in it and doors and
enclosers are getting corroded day by day.
company should take the decision for its replacement with a higher current capacity
(approx. 30 V/30 A) to meet the present and future current demand to maintain the

 Off potentials of tank-B with respect to permanent reference electrode is even less
than or near about (-) 100 mV at 11 Amps.
 There could be possibility that, either tank is not protected or reference electrode
might have damaged / contaminated.
Recommendation
 It is recommended to check the condition of anodes and permanent reference
electrode during earliest shutdown.
 If there is no nearby immediate shutdown planned, then it’s recommended to replace
the anodes and permanent reference electrode with new one to cathodically protect
the tank from corrosion.

 Off potentials i.e. polarized potentials of tank-B with respect to permanent reference
electrode is even less than or near about (-) 100 mV at 11 Amps.
 This off potentials is very less and seems tank internal surfaces is corroded
drastically.
Recommendation
 It is recommended to carryout Ultra thickness (UT) test to check the thickness of tank
surfaces.

8.4.3. CONCLUSION & RECOMMENDATION
a) MMO Mesh Bar Anodes
Conclusion
 All MMO mesh anodes are working fine and delivering the required current.
Conclusion
 Two of the reference electrodes (3Zc1 & 4Zc1) seems to be not working. In spite of increase in
current (am most 29 A), there in almost no changes in potentials of these reference electrodes.
 All other reference electrodes working fine.
 However, there is no immediate requirement of replacement as their second reference
electrode are working fine.
 All potentials of the rebars are more than -800 mV with respect to Ag/AgCl reference
electrodes. Hence, structures are cathodically protected.
 At two locations potentials are less than -800 mV which could be due to mal functioning of
reference electrodes as there is no increase in rebars potentials at these locations in spite of
increasing the overall CP current by 29 Amp.

AMRAN CPSS L.L.C

c) Junction Box
Conclusion
 Physical condition of all the three Junction boxes is OK.
Conclusion
 Enclosure of the TR Unit is in good conditions.
 Functionality of TR Unit is OK.
e) Header Cables
Conclusion
 Header cables of TR Unit circuit-6 is damaged as no current is passing in spite of setting 12 V
on the panel.
 However, there is no immediate requirement as structures are protected by other circuits
output currents.
Recommendation
 Based on future operational requirement, company should take the decision for its repair and
rectification.
