This document specifies accelerated life test method of mixed metal oxide anodes for impressed current cathodic protection used in concrete. The accelerated life test results can be used to compare the durability of the anodes and to evaluate whether the anodes can comply with required specifications of design life expectancy at rated current output.
This document is also applicable to other anode systems that are used as impressed current anodes embedded in concrete with suitably modified apparatus to hold anodes of different geometry.
