In this part— anode , in relation to a cathodic protection system, means a part of the system that is an electrical conductor placed in contact with ground or water. cathodically protected structure means a structure protected by a cathodic protection system. cathodic protection standard means the following standards that are part of the series AS 2832 (Cathodic protection of metals)— AS 2832.1 ( Part 1 —Pipes and cables); AS 2832.2 ( Part 2 —Compact buried structures); AS 2832.3 ( Part 3 —Fixed immersed structures); AS 2832.4 ( Part 4 —Internal surfaces); AS 2832.5 ( Part 5 —Steel in concrete structures). foreign structure , for a cathodic protection system, means a structure that is buried or submerged and that may be subject to interference arising from the system. foreign structure owner , for a cathodic protection system, means a person who owns a foreign structure for the system. impressed current cathodic protection system means a cathodic protection system in which the current flowing between the cathodically protected structure and the anode is supplied by an external source. maximum operating current , for a cathodic protection system, means the maximum value of the fixed, manually variable or automatically variable current at which the system operates, other than during short-term testing of the system. registered system means a registrable system registered under this part. registrable system means an impressed current cathodic protection system the converter of which is capable of delivering a current greater than 0.25A. short-term testing , of a cathodic protection system, means testing for less than a total of 30 minutes in any 7 consecutive days.
