Soil corrosion of the AISI1020 steel buried near electrical power transmission line towers

Soil corrosion of carbon steel samples buried up to hundred days close to a high voltage power transmission line tower was examined by weight loss vs. time. A higher weight loss was observed if the samples were electrically connected to the tower than if they were not. This was attributed to the inf...
