Cathodic Protection 4 - Specialist — CP4

The Cathodic Protection Specialist certification covers the theoretical concepts behind the design and considerations that influence the design and calculations (including attenuation) of a cathodic protection system. It is for individuals who are responsible for the design, installation, and maintenance of cathodic protection systems. Prior to taking the exam or the course, applicants must have completed college or university-level courses in algebra, geometry, and trigonometry, and must have significant amounts of practical experience in cathodic protection. The Cathodic Protection Specialist course focuses on the principles and procedures for CP design on a variety of structures for both galvanic and impressed current systems. The course discusses theoretical design concepts, considerations that influence the design (environment, structure type/materials of construction, coatings), design factors, and calculations (including attenuation).
