Prevent damage, keep interference voltage under control
Pipelines often run alongside high-voltage lines or railway lines. If they run parallel, interference voltages can have a negative effect on pipelines causing wear and tear and thus corrosion damage.
Protect people
Interference voltages often lead to high touch voltages. These dangerous overvoltages present an enormous risk to people in areas which are freely accessible and during maintenance work. The resulting injuries can be severe or even life-threatening. Don't let it come to this.
