Cathodic protection prevents corrosion by making a metal, which would ordinarily behave like an anode and corrode, behave like a cathode and be free from corrosive attack. In cathodic protection this is achieved by providing electrons of a higher energy level (electric potential) than those which would be produced in the corrosion reaction at the anode.

hope this help
