Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0026439A2] An assembly for use in the cathodic protection of steel reinforcement in reinforced concrete said assembly comprises: (i) an anode of a metal having a more negative electrode potential than steel and, in electrical contact therewith, (ii) an elongate electrical connector eg a wire made of a ductile metal capable of being wound around the steel reinforcing element to be protected. The anode may be in the form of a block cast around a portion of the length of the elongate connector and preferably the elongate connector comprises a plurality of wires twisted together over a portion of their length with the anode cast around the twisted portion.
