Coupled multielectrode array sensors (CMAS) have been extensively used to measure localized
corrosion rate in laboratories and plants. A convenient way to calculate localized corrosion rate is to
assume that the internal current flow within the most anodic electrode is insignificant. In cases where
the environment is not significantly corrosive, this assumption may not be true. The internal electron
that flows on the most corroding electrode may cause the CMAS to underestimate the non-uniform
corrosion rates. A new method has been derived to minimize the internal currents within the most
anodic electrode. This paper describes the method and presents some experimental results.
