What is Impressed Current Cathodic Protection or ICCP ?
Advantages are:
Increased life of rudders, shafts, struts and propellers as well as any other underwater parts affected by electrolysis
Anodes are light, sturdy and compact for easy shipping, storage and installation
Anodes, reference cells and automatic control systems maintain just the right amount of protection for underwater hulls and fittings, unlike standard zinc anodes, which can’t adjust to changes in salinity or compensate for extreme paint loss
Automatic control equipment ensures reliable, simple operation
Optimum documented corrosion protection at minimum overall cost
Only one installation required for the life of the vessel or structure
Increased dry-dock interval
Approved by all classification societies for all types of vessels.
Very good and interesting info
