Feb 4, 2025 | Institute News

Leading on Cathodic 
Protection Standards

BSI committee GEL/603 help create and influence standards in the field of cathodic protection in the UK, Europe and internationally. Our present GEL/603 standards chair has reached the end of his third term, and we need to find a suitable replacement.

  • 
Do you have technical knowledge in the application of cathodic protection?
  • 
Perhaps you work in building and civil engineering or specialise in onshore/offshore structure protection, are an engineer or designer of structures that require cathodic protection such as buried pipelines and vessels, maybe you’re knowledgeable in dc power supplies or anodes or are involved in installations, surveys, inspection or maintenance of CP systems.
  • 
The current Chair has reached the end of his term and BSI are looking for a suitable candidate to help lead the committee in its future work.
  • 
GEL/603 is highly influential, not just in the UK but also in Europe. It is BSI’s mirror committee of CEN/TC 219 and ISO/TC 67/SC 2/WG 11, which are responsible for setting European and international standards for cathodic protection.
  • 
The committee’s work covers a wide remit of cathodic protection in onshore and pipeline systems, offshore and marine uses, and other specialist areas including measurement techniques, influence of coatings and/or stray currents (AC and DC) on the performance of cathodic protection systems, and competence levels of cathodic protection persons.
  • 
The committee usually meets twice a year and meetings are held virtually. There is the opportunity to be invited as a guest to see the work of the committee before committing.

If you are interested in finding out more about the chair role or perhaps becoming a member of GEL/603, please contact Katherine by emailing csc@bsigroup.com, or to apply please visit https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/BSI-Chair-App  or https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/BSI-Standards-Maker-App
