• CP components including impressed current systems, galvanic anodes and test stations
• Read shunts and understand their use in rectifiers, bonds, and anodes
• Perform periodic surveys to confirm the effectiveness of a CP system
• Reference cells, their maintenance, use, and precautions
• Basic location mapping, report preparation, and recordkeeping
• Review safety issues specific to CP
• Code requirements related to CP
