Area Potential - Earth Current (APEC) Survey

Area Potential - Earth Current (APEC) SurveyPlants contain a complex network of underground piping that is connected to a copper grounding grid. Structural Integrity can initially assess the external corrosion condition of underground piping and structures without excavation by evaluating the coating condition and CP effectiveness. Our APEC survey technique is a unique application of two common testing methods, CIS and DCVG. The subsequent specialized interpretation of the resulting data produces meaningful information within a complex network of grounded piping.
