The Critical Role of CP Cables in ICCP Systems

Cathodic Protection Cables serve as the vital link in ICCP systems, connecting the rectifier to the anodes and the protected structure. Unlike standard electrical cables, CP cables must withstand severe environmental stresses, including corrosive soil, chemical exposure, and moisture ingress, while maintaining high electrical conductivity to ensure the protective current is delivered effectively and reliably.

Key Construction Features

  • Conductor: High-purity stranded copper for maximum current flow and flexibility.

  • Primary Insulation: Typically High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (HMWPE) or Kynar (PVDF) for superior chemical and abrasion resistance.

  • Jacket (Optional): A secondary layer for added mechanical protection in extremely harsh or rocky environments.

Benefits of Our High-Performance CP Cables

Superior Corrosion Resistance

HMWPE and PVDF insulation materials are specifically chosen for their resistance to acids, alkalis, and hydrocarbons found in soil and water.

High Dielectric Strength

Ensures minimal current leakage, maximizing the efficiency of the ICCP system and reducing power loss.

Exceptional Durability

Built to withstand mechanical stress during installation and long-term burial, minimizing the risk of failure.

UV and Moisture Resistance

Suitable for both direct burial and above-ground applications, maintaining integrity in all weather conditions.

Types and Specifications of CP Cables

We supply various types of CP cables, each meeting stringent industry standards (e.g., ASTM, NACE) for different application requirements.

Cable TypeInsulation MaterialTypical Application
HMWPE CableHigh Molecular Weight PolyethyleneGeneral purpose direct burial in soil and freshwater.
Kynar (PVDF) CablePolyvinylidene FluorideInternal connections to anodes, deep well groundbeds, highly corrosive environments.
XLPE CableCross-Linked PolyethyleneUsed for header cables and general wiring in CP systems.

Common Specifications

  • Wire Gauge (AWG): Typically 8 AWG, 10 AWG, 12 AWG, and larger sizes for high-current applications.

  • Voltage Rating: Standard 600V or higher for ICCP systems.

  • Color: Usually black for UV resistance and industry standard.

Broad Application Areas

  • Pipeline Protection: Connecting anodes and test stations along buried oil, gas, and water pipelines.

  • Tank Protection: Wiring for groundbeds protecting underground and aboveground storage tank bottoms.

  • Marine Structures: Used in ICCP systems for offshore platforms, jetties, and ship hulls.

  • Deep Well Groundbeds: Kynar-insulated cables are essential for the highly corrosive environment near the anode.
