Introduction
Stray current as defined in BS EN 50122-2 as the
part of a current which follow paths other than the
intended paths and the consequence of stray
current is that where it leaves a buried metal
object, electrolytic corrosion will occur, frequently
in highly localised areas and potentially leading to
loss of material and damages

This is clearly undesirable in the case of metallic Stray current problem associated with an
pipes carrying gas and water, as leakage and/or electrified DC transit system
rupture has obvious safety and/or operational
risks to both the tramway and the general public.
In the case of cables, particularly the older lead
sheathed types, such loss occurs even more
rapidly and can lead to breakdown of the (now)
unprotected inner insulation of the cable.
The Purpose of
Stray Current Corrosion Monitoring System (SCCMS)

To minimize stray current and the traction return currents

to be confined to the intended return circuit as far as
possible.

To provide Stray Current Control system with a design life

of 120 years on railway structures

To provide facilities to monitor and mitigate the stray

current
