Description
Performance Requirements for Dielectric Pipe Unions
Dielectric pipe unions are designed to prevent stray current in piping systems. These stray currents can come from dissimilar piping materials or improper grounding of electrical equipment. This standard provides guidance in the construction of pipe unions that incorporate electrical insulating properties to reduce the accelerated corrosion that can result from galvanic and stray currents.
