The stray current corrosion issues associated with dc rail transit systems are well documented. However, there is a need for a concise guide document that can be used by transit agencies as a framework for initially designing systems and for the ongoing maintenance of those systems. This guide will assist transit agencies in the establishment of key processes as well as design and maintenance requirements for the mitigation of stray current effects on new and existing dc rail transit systems. The Guide will serve as a knowledge base for transit engineering personnel to reduce stray current problems and to take appropriate proactive measures.

Other Activities From This Working Group
Current projects that have been authorized by the IEEE SA Standards Board to develop a standard.
No Active Projects
Standards approved by the IEEE SA Standards Board that are within the 10-year lifecycle.
No Active Standards
These standards have been replaced with a revised version of the standard, or by a compilation of the original active standard and all its existing amendments, corrigenda, and errata.
No Superseded Standards
These standards have been removed from active status through a ballot where the standard is made inactive as a consensus decision of a balloting group.
No Inactive-Withdrawn Standards
These standards are removed from active status through an administrative process for standards that have not undergone a revision process within 10 years.
No Inactive-Reserved Standards
