Here is what is discussed: 1. SACRIFICIAL ANODE CATHODIC PROTECTION 2. IMPRESSED CURRENT CATHODIC PROTECTION.

Cathodic protection is a method to reduce corrosion by minimizing the difference in potential between anode and cathode. This is achieved by applying a current to the structure to be protected (such as a pipeline) from some outside source. When enough current is applied, the whole structure will be at one potential; thus, anode and cathode sites will not exist. Cathodic protection is commonly used on many types of structures, such as pipelines, underground storage tanks, locks, and ship hulls.
