Overprotection of steel structure

May I ask why corrosion rate is increased when the potential of the mild steel goes below -1400mV? Does'nt the corrosion of the mild steel stop when the potential of the mild steel goes below -800mV??

Hi there, kazuya173:, I hope you don't mind my merging your three posts, they seem to touch on similar concepts, and  its best for everyone if we have all your questions in one place.
Hey, I'm not judging.  I just like to shoot straight.  I'm a man of science.
