e) Supply, instalaton esting & commissioning of Mo (Low potential Min. 5.0
Ka)y Zn Galvanic anodes with backil as per te standard specification.
MEC/TS/05/E9/016A The weight of the Mg Anode &the total nos. of anodes
shall be calculated as per the corrosion survey, soil chemical analysis, total
weight and current requirement of the pipeline section. However Min one
anode is to be installed at every one KM with test station. Total number of
Ma anodes requirement & its type (nbpon/solid) snal bel coagulant as pet soil
resistivity, total anode weight requirement & total protection current required.
f) Supply, installation minimum one no. Mo anode (5kg) shall be provided on
each end of crossing for protection of Bare Casing pipe. In case of bare casing
no additional ribbon anode shall be provided for protection. Bidder shall
consider bare Casing pipe with increased thickness for the cased crossings as
per API 1102 Riller materal atl any type snal be avoised bie annular space of
the carier and casing pipe. (Refer CP at cased crossing in PJS cl no. g)
g) Cable to pipe connection by themit welding/Pin brazing (or charged Pipeline)
for 35, 25. 10. 6 sa.mm copper cable including excavation and exposing
 piling. Recoating with epoxy testing etc.
h) Supply, layng of HDPE sheets (200mm wide, 6mm thick) between this
pipeline and the other CP protected foreign pipelines at the crossing locations
for providing electrical isolation.
i) Earthling of above ground catholically unprotected pipeline at Receipt
Station/Dispatch station/Metering skid/intermediate station etc. the earth
electrode shall be 65 mm dia 4.5 mm thickness & 3000mm long. Total
grounding resistance shall be limited to 1-2 Ohm max.
j) Supply, installation testing & commissioning of one set of spark gap arrestor
100 KA. 10/350 uS (Solid State) across each insulating joint provided at tap-
off SV & various consumer terminals as per scope of work specification. The
un-protected/above ground pipeline shall be earthed through Gl earth
electrodes with separate earth pit. The resistance of grounding stall be limited
to 12 ohms max.

k) Supply insulation, testing commissioning one set of polarization cell (Solid
state) with zinc anode at all high tension electrical power transmission
line/equipment’s railway tractions (all 66 KV& above) crossing or running
parallel to the pipeline for grounding purpose as per specification for existing
& proposed HT lines. The rating of the cell shall depend upon anticipated
fault current and ground bed resistance at the location of installation and the
calculation of the same shall be furnished to MECON for review & selection
of rating of the Polarization Cell. However, the rating of polarization cell
shall not be less than 3.7 KA @ 30 Cycle & number of 20 kg net weight zinc
anode shall not be less than two. It required Zn Ribbon anode (Dia min.
12X14 mm with back ti in trench)/ pre-packed AC mitigator wire of
MATCOR make also be used for the grounding purpose to get lower
grounding resistance (tar soil resistively higher than 25 Ohm-Cm). The
resistance of grounding shall be limied to 1-2 ohms max.
i) Supply, installation, testing & commissioning of external electrical resistance
Probe (01 nos. probe with 01 reading instruments) utilizing the electrical
resistance technique shall be provided along the pipeline at marshy/
vulnerable locations to monitor the external corrosion activity on the pipeline.
Location of external ER probe shall be decided during detail engineering.
Care shall be taken during installation of ER probes so that probe element is
opposite to pipe.
m) Supply, installation, testing & commissioning of Polarization coupons (Total
6 Nos.) one at every 5 km interval, area of 100mm x 100mm naving one side
exoosed areal of 25 mm x 25 mm without permanent reference cell shall be
provided along the pipeline at marshy areas and at vulnerable locations to
monitor the external corrosion activity on the pipeline as per enclosed
standard specification, Location of external Polarization coupons & Number
of magnetic devices for operation of magnetic switch shall be decided during
detail engineering in consultation with Owner/Owner's representative.
Permanent Reference cell shall be manufactured & constructed in the
withdrawing no. MEC/SD/05/E9/E/CP/1610 Rev-O. Care shall be taken
during installation of polarization coupon so that bare face of polarization
coupon is opposite to pipe polarization coupon shall not be installed between
TLP & Pipeline. The works related to collection of approximately 2-5 m of
 pipeline material (in pieces of 300 to 1000 mm length) for fabrication of
