TITLE(s): ELECTROLYSIS-AND-CORROSION-CONTROL ENGINEER (profess. & kin.) alternate titles:
corrosion-control specialist; corrosion engineer; electrolysis engineer; electrolysis investigator
Investigates causes and devises means to combat or eliminate electrolysis of water, gas, and oil
mains and pipelines resulting from stray electric currents flowing in earth: Determines existence
and locates sources of stray electric currents creating electrolytic conditions, using voltmeters,
ammeters, and other electrical testing apparatus. Recommends preventive and corrective measures for
protection of pipe and underground structures, such as use of insulating and corrosion resisting
materials. Confers with power company personnel and power consumers and suggests methods to
eliminate sources of power leakage. Studies destructive properties of soil, corrosive actions, and
other problems of deterioration, and suggests methods of preventing or mitigating trouble. Writes
reports of studies and investigations conducted. May design and direct installation of cathodic
