Who Should Attend:
This program benefits anyone responsible for supervising CP systems, measuring the effectiveness of CP systems, and/or recording this data, including:
- CP field personnel
- Technicians
Virtual Classroom:
Part I of the course is provided online over a two-day period in a virtual classroom with a live instructor. In these first two days, learning objectives include:
- Recall the code requirements related to CP
- Explain the importance of periodic surveys, including IR-Free readings, polarization decay tests, and current measurements
- Maintain documentation and records, including data plotting analysis
- Test and troubleshoot rectifier component parts
Students will receive the same manual, reference material, and coursework such as exercises, quizzes, and activities you would receive in our traditional in-person classroom courses.
Practical Classroom:
You will perform the in-person, hands on training including using equipment and instruments for CP testing with your instructor face-to-face. Practical sessions are now being scheduled in adherence with CDC and WHO guidelines so you can complete Part ll of the blended program. Learning objectives include:
- Define the purpose and uses of corrosion coupon test stations
- Perform advanced field tests (including current requirement test, shorted casing test, IR drop test, soil resistivity, and interference tests) and evaluate the results
- Perform tests to verify the presence of stray current interference and recommend method(s) to mitigate the interference
- Conduct and understand the importance of periodic surveys, including IR-Free readings, polarization decay tests, and current measurements
- Describe AC voltage and the methods of mitigation
