The development of design levels of track-to-earth resistance has been diluted and misunderstood since its inception as an industry standard requirement for dc electrified transit systems. This paper will describe the general development of track-to-earth resistance levels, present examples of differences from system to system and extension to extension, describe the latest technologies for track isolation and anticipated track-to-earth resistance levels and discuss post construction acceptance testing of track-to-earth resistance.

Keywords: dc powered transit, track-to-earth resistance, stray current, traction power model, stray current control, track isolation, transit design, transit construction, light rail, heavy rail.

04044 Performance of High Potential Magnesium Anodes: Factors Affecting Efficiency

Product Number: 51300-04044-SG

ISBN: 04044 2004 CP

Author: Mark Yunovich, CC Technologies

Publication Date: 2004

$20.00

Magnesium anodes are provided to the corrosion control industry by a number of domestic and international manufacturers and distributors. Anode composition is commonly the only criterion used for quality control by the end users. Many of the anodes, however, have been shown to meet the compositional and potential specifications, and yet have had measured efficiencies as low as 7%.

04192 Integrity Assessment of Pipeline Networks Through Close-Interval Potential Survey

Product Number: 51300-04192-SG

ISBN: 04192 2004 CP

Author: Jeremiah Emeka Mbamalu and Frederick Oba Edeko, University of Benin

Publication Date: 2004

$20.00

A close-interval potential (CIP) data survey on ~154 km of Crude Oil/Gas pipeline networks. This aim was to generate corrosion data to determine weak sections of the pipelines/flowlines and, to ascertain the effectiveness of the CP system and integrity of the Crude Oil/Gas pipeline networks. The pipeline networks were found safe for continued operation under its present condition.
