Cathodic Protection Made Simple with P3
Most propane marketers want to do the right thing, but aren’t always sure where to begin with cathodic protection inspections and documentation. We see this frequently, especially when keeping up with testing intervals, acceptable readings, and audit-ready recordkeeping. This is where the P3 Compliance System comes in.
We can provide your team with a purpose-built digital platform to complete required safety documentation faster, reduce errors, and centralize your inspection records so you can stay compliant with confidence.
What Is Cathodic Protection?
Cathodic protection is a corrosion control method used on underground steel propane containers. National Fire Protection Association’s (NFPA) Liquefied Petroleum Gas Code 58 requires cathodic protection on applicable underground propane containers and requires routine testing and record retention to prove the system is working.
Why This Testing and Documentation Matters
- Proves compliance during state inspections
- Provides required records during audits
- Demonstrates testing intervals were met
- Reduces liability exposure
- Protects your customers, assets, and company
