(54)	Dielectric means of fastening for an anode in a metal tank

(57) The object of the present invention is the realisation of insulating means of fastening for an armoured electric resistance (1) that extends inside the tank, and whose external metallic armour (1.1) acts as an anode.
Said insulating means of fastening are composed of dielectric bushes (4; 4.1) directly moulded onto the armour (1.1) at the end of the tubular element that forms said electric resistance (1).
An electrical connector (8; 8.1) guarantees the electrical connection between the positive pole of an impressed current generator and the armour (1.1) that acts as an anti-corrosion anode.
