A new program for the Hewlett-Packard 97 and 67 portable calculators allows the field application of Pearson's network equations for analyzing the amount of interference caused by a pipeline's cathodic-protection rectifier on a neighboring pipeline or power cable. Reducing the analysis to a simple, fast operation, the program produces a complete description of the overall behavior of the interference problem and its solution. The corrosion engineer can establish a model of the particular interference condition by obtaining a few field measurements at the test site. The model may be altered and examined to determine the necessary mitigation measurements.
