Cathodic protector for the protection of steel reinforcement in concrete , elongate electrical ductile metal connector wound around steel reinforcing in electrical contact with anode

摘要

An assembly for use in the cathodic protection of steel reinforcement in reinforced concrete said assembly comprising; 1) an anode of a metal having a more negative electrode potential than steel and, in electrical contact therewith; 2) an elongated electrical connector made of a ductile metal being physically and electrically connected to the anode; wherein the anode is in the form of a block formed around a portion of the length of the elongated connector.
