MIL-HDBK-1004/10
ABSTRACT
This manual is intended for use in the design and construction of
cathodic protection systems for the mitigation of corrosion of buried or
submerged metallic structures. Design of cathodic protection systems is
somewhat different than design of other electrical or mechanical systems
because it must be based upon local environmental conditions such as soil
resistivity. This manual presents criteria for cathodic protection, meth-
odologies for the determination of required environmental conditions, meth-
odologies for design of cathodic protection systems, examples of typical
systems and design calculations, installation and construction practices,
recommended initial system checkout procedures, and system maintenance
requirements.
