I jus...A little Submarine Sacrificial Anode story. <br />I just saw this old post. When I was in the Navy on submarines one of my jobs while we were in dry dock or repair was replacing the zinc sacrificial anodes in systems and on the hull. They get used up (they corrode instead of the ship) and must be replaced every so often. One of the problems we had is that the shipyard would carefully paint over the zincs with thick hull paint and thus making them useless. We would have to go chip off the paint from the zincs. Fun times hanging over the side of a submarine in dry dock with a chipping hammer 50 feet off the floor of the dock. Cussing the painters the entire time, but that is what sailors do, chip paint and complain, even on a nuclear submarine. <br />GRayRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11355369343845540787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4953008377950396317.post-50501075154650622322011-08-22T19:41:21.899-07:002011-08-22T19:41:21.899-07:00I believe is the far end of a lighting protection ...I believe is the far end of a lighting protection device. The metallic bar in the roof "attract" the lighting bolt, the electrical charge, that is conducted to the ground through a metallic cable. The connection between the cable and the ground is called anode, sometimes it demands a preparation of the ground around it and different types of metal to help the electric charge disperse and prevent damage to the building or any effect in the surface.renatohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03410100376755641557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4953008377950396317.post-26056499042003251982011-08-20T14:11:44.720-07:002011-08-20T14:11:44.720-07:00Dear Dan!
