FIELD: electricity.
SUBSTANCE: system of cathodic protection of reinforced concrete structure that consists of steel armature sealed in concrete contains many anodes. Each of the said anodes contains corrugated metal flat substrate welded to current collector. Note that said anodes are located with force in many holes made in concrete. Method of cathodic protection system installation in reinforced concrete structure includes obtaining many cavities in concrete, location of cathodic protection system with force into each of the said anode cavities, bended in cylindrical position with axis parallel to the said current collector, and fixing of the said anodes inside said cavities by cement grout applied by filling or splattering. Method of cathodic protection system installation in reinforced concrete structure includes obtaining many cavities in concrete, location of rigid plastic guide pipe with force into each cavity, insert into each pipe of anode bended in cylindrical position with axis parallel to the said current collector, extraction of guide pipes and fixing of anodes inside cavities by cement grout applied by filling or splattering.
EFFECT: service life extension of reinforced concrete structures.
