本NACE/IEEE联合标准提供了一些要求，以帮助电力公司识别可能存在地下腐蚀高风险的结构，挖掘和检查选定的结构，根据腐蚀降解对结构的状况进行分类，根据这些发现对需要额外检查的结构进行优先排序，并根据需要帮助确定下一步。本标准由任务组432维护。

This NACE/IEEE joint standard provides requirements to help electric utilities identify structures that may be at a high risk for below-grade corrosion, excavate and inspect the selected structures, categorize the condition of structures based on corrosion degradation, prioritize structures requiring additional inspection based on those findings, and help identify next steps as required. This standard is maintained by Task Group 432.
