Electrical grounding and cathodic protection at the fairless works

A STEEL grounding system has been installed at Fairless Works, the new plant of the U. S. Steel Corporation near Morrisville, Pa. The use of steel instead of copper for electrical grounding was adopted as part of a program to minimize underground corrosion. Since this is a departure from conventional practice, it is believed that the story of this particular installation will be of interest to many engineers.
