The principle

Corrosion is not eliminated by the application of cathodic protection but is simply transferred from the structure to the anode.

Read the Cathodic Protection page

Impressed current cathodic protection circuit A transformer-rectifier at ground level feeds direct current to a buried anode groundbed. Current passes from the anode through the electrolyte onto the protected structure, and returns to the transformer-rectifier through the negative cable. The anode is consumed; the structure is not. Electrolyte · soil or seawater Transformer-rectifier + Anode lead Anode groundbed Consumed in service − Structure lead Protected structure Pipeline, tank floor, piling
