A study is made of the changeover time of the voltage between an electrode and a metal work piece buried in the ground and protected against corrosion by an electric current. For this study, it is intended momentarily to interrupt the circulation of the protective current, to read the voltage between the work piece and the electrode, to pass these readings to an analog filter, to smooth these filtered signals by substituting them with values corresponding to a continuous and monotonic postulated function, and then to mathematically reconstruct the change in the voltage signals between the work piece and electrode such as it would be without filtering.
