Many pipeline operators use flange isolation kits, monolithic isolation joints, and pipeline decouplers to manage stray current flow and over-voltage events on their pipelines. However, knowing where to use each of these products and what their capabilities are are the most asked questions we receive. This presentation will help you understand the capabilities of each of these products and where to use them for the most effective stray current protection strategy.
