25、es (see Annex A). Particularly, long buried horizontal structures, e.g. pipelines and metal sheathed cables, may be in danger of this type of corrosion. Since corrosion damage can appear after only a short time of exposure to stray current it is important to make provisions for protective measures a
26、t an early stage and also to check the effect of these measures regularly. This standard describes appropriate measures that can be applied to interfering d.c. systems and, if necessary, to structures which are, or which can be, exposed to stray current corrosion. The standard also gives measurement
27、 criteria for determining when these measures must be applied. Measurement techniques used on d.c. interfered structures are described in EN 13509. The measures described in this standard are aimed for protection against stray current corrosion. For effective protection against other types of corros
28、ion other measures have to be applied. EN 50162:2004 - 6 - 1 Scope This standard establishes the general principles to be adopted to minimize the effects of stray current corrosion caused by direct-current (d.c.) on buried or immersed metal structures. The standard is intended to offer guidance for:
29、 the design of direct current systems which may produce stray currents; the design of metal structures, which are to be buried or immersed and which may be subject to stray current corrosion; the selection of appropriate protection measures. The standard mainly deals with external stray current corr
30、osion on buried or immersed structures. However stray current corrosion may also occur internally in systems containing an electrolyte e.g. near insulating joints or high resistance pipe joints in a water pipeline. These situations are not dealt with in detail in this standard but principles and mea
31、sures described here are generally applicable for minimizing the interference effects. Stray currents may also cause other effects such as overheating. These are not covered in this standard. D.C. systems that can cause currents to flow in the earth or any other electrolyte, whether intentional or u
32、nintentional, include: d.c. traction systems; trolley bus systems; d.c. power systems; d.c. equipment at industrial sites; d.c. communication systems ; cathodic protection systems; high voltage d.c. (HVDC) transmission systems; d.c. track circuit signalling systems. For stray currents from traction
33、systems EN 50122-2 gives requirements for minimizing their production and for the effects within the railroad. Systems which may be affected by stray currents include buried or immersed metal structures such as: a) pipelines; b) metal sheathed cables; c) tanks and vessels; d) earthing systems; e) st
34、eel reinforcement in concrete; f) steel piling. - 7 - EN 50162:2004 An affected structure carrying stray currents, e.g. a pipeline or cable may itself affect other nearby structures (see Clause 8). This standard does not address the effect of a.c. stray current. Where a.c. stray current is suspected
35、, care should be taken when taking measurements on any components due to risk of large induced voltages. If a.c. stray current interference is present the criteria described in this standard will not apply. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the applicati

42、4 - 8 - 4 Information exchange and co-operation During the design stage of buried or immersed metallic structures the possibility of both causing and suffering from stray current interference shall be taken into consideration in order to meet the criteria mentioned in Clause 6. Electrical interferen
43、ce problems on buried or immersed metallic structures shall be considered with the following points in mind: the owner of the metallic structure may protect a structure against corrosion with the method that he considers to be the most suitable. However, electrical interference to neighbouring struc
44、tures shall be maintained within the defined limits; stray currents, especially from d.c. traction systems are directly related to the design of the return circuits. This means that it is possible to limit the stray current but not to remove it entirely; where other structures that may be affected a
45、re present, the requirement to maintain interference within the defined limits applies to all affected structures. This goal is best achieved by agreement, co-operation and information exchange between the parties involved. Information exchange and co-operation are important and shall be carried out
46、 both at the design stage and during operation of the systems. In this way possible effects, suitable precautions and remedies can be assessed. The following information shall be exchanged: 1) details of new buried metallic structures; 2) cathodic protection installations or significant modification
47、s; 3) d.c. traction system installations or significant modifications; 4) HVDC transmission line installation or modification. Agreement and co-operation may be more effectively achieved and maintained by periodic meetings between interested parties, committees or other associations who can establis
48、h information exchange procedures and protocols. 5 Identification and measurement of stray current interference 5.1 Identification In cases where there is a possible corrosion risk due to d.c. interference analysis of the situation shall consider electrical properties and the location of the possibl
49、e source of interference as well as anomalies recorded during routine cathodic protection measurements. There are four principal ways to identify stray-current interference. These are to measure one or more of the following: structure to electrolyte potential fluctuations; deviations from normal structure to electrolyte potentials; voltage gradients in the electrolyte; line currents in pipelines coupons or metallic cable sheaths.
