Abstract: Mounting an anode on a coated surface of a metal structure exposed to the atmosphere; connecting a cathode to a main body of the metal structure; connecting the anode and the cathode to a solar battery; whereby when a defective part is generated on the coated surface of the metal structure and water film is formed on the coated surface, establishing a corrosive condition of the metal structure, a current is automatically flowed between the anode and the cathode to prevent corrosion of the metal structure.
