ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for and method of preventing end effect in deep well impressed current anodes surrounded by a carbonaceous backfill in which the opposite ends of an elongated slender anode are of non-conducting material and the remainder of the anode includes a plurality of alternating segments of conducting and non-conducting material along substantially the entire surface length of the anode. The anode is connected to a source of impressed electrical current and the non-conducting segments cause a substantially constant impressed current density to be transferred from each of the conducting segments along the length of the anode as an electronic discharge and substantially prevents any electrolytic discharge therefrom.
