Abstract

An electrolysis test station terminal (10) support for use in connection with measurement of electrical properties of an underground pipe (12). The terminal support includes an elongated web structure (21) formed of nonconductive plastic material and including at least one longitudinal rib (17, 18, 19) integrally formed as part of the web structure. A hollow core (30, 31, 32) is formed within the longitudinal rib and provides a housing for conductive wire (37, 38) to be concealed therein. An opening in the longitudinal rib provides access to the core to enable physical contact (37a, 38a) for measurement of electrical properties as conducted from the underground pipe through the wire into the terminal support.
