CEN/TC 219 - Cathodic protection (provisional)
Standardization in the field of external and internal cathodic protection of buried or immersed structures of metallic materials (e.g. pipes for the transport of gas, water and fuels; off-shore constructions; ships; fuel storage tanks; telecommunications and electric cables etc). reinforced concrete buildings, structures, foundations, pipelines ect). The influence of coatings and/or stray currents (AC and DC) on the performance of cathodic protection systems. The anodic protection of internal surfaces of structural components. Standardization of a framework for a system and related procedures for the definition and verification of the competence level of operators in the field of cathodic protection.

This committee has published 44 standards.
CEN/TC 219 develops CEN standards in the area of M15 - METALLIC CORROSION. The scope of work includes: Standardization in the field of external and internal cathodic protection of buried or immersed structures of metallic materials (e.g. pipes for the transport of gas, water and fuels; off-shore constructions; ships; fuel storage tanks; telecommunications and electric cables etc). reinforced concrete buildings, structures, foundations, pipelines ect). The influence of coatings and/or stray currents (AC and DC) on the performance of cathodic protection systems. The anodic protection of internal surfaces of structural components. Standardization of a framework for a system and related procedures for the definition and verification of the competence level of operators in the field of cathodic protection. Currently, there are 44 published standards from this technical committee.
The European Committee for Standardization (CEN) is a public standards organization that brings together the national standardization bodies of 34 European countries. CEN provides a platform for developing European Standards (ENs) and other technical documents in relation to various products, materials, services, and processes, supporting the European Single Market.
A Technical Committee (TC) in CEN is a group of experts responsible for developing international standards in a specific technical area. TCs are composed of national member body delegates and work through consensus to create standards that meet global industry needs. Each TC may have subcommittees (SCs) and working groups (WGs) for specialized topics.
