Mathiazhagan capacity as well as achieving unproved reliability and more Abstract—In order to minimize the risk of failures or major negative electrical potential which greatly improved their renewals of hull structures during the ships expected life span, performance. it is imperative that the precaution must be taken with regard to In parallel with the introduction of aluminum alloy an adequate margin of safety against any one or combination of sacrificial anodes in the late 1950s the idea was conceived failure modes including excessive yielding, buckling, brittle fracture, fatigue and corrosion. The most efficient system for that low voltage D.C. current could be applied to inert metals combating underwater corrosion is cathodic protection. The so as to save the cost of replacing sacrificial anodes at regular basic principle of this method is that the ships structure is made intervals and indeed, so-called impressed current systems are cathodic, i.e. the anodic (corrosion) reactions are suppressed by now in common use - not only for the external hulls of ships the application of an opposing current and the ship is there by but also for the internal surface of cooling water systems at protected. This paper deals with state of art in cathodi
