ELECTRICAL INSTALLATIONS: In Corrosive Environments

Abstract

In chemical plants, corrosion is present to some extent in practically all electrical installations. Some of this corrosion is of a limited nature and relatively harmless. In other cases a more suitable material or a better appreciation of design factors would avoid severe cases which call for costly shutdowns. Numerous metals and alloys are available for electrical installations; all have advantages and disadvantages. This information, together with pertinent design factors, is the key to trouble‐free electrical units.
