Earthing electrode assembly for submerged electrical apparatus

摘要

An earthing electrode assembly for providing a submerged electrical apparatus with an earth path. The electrode assembly is provided with an earthing electrode and with attachment means so that the electrode assembly is capable of attachment to a cable. The electrode assembly is also provided with an insulated electrical connection for connecting the electrode to the submerged electrical apparatus. The connection is of sufficient length so as to enable the electrode to be located at a distance from the apparatus which is sufficient for the apparatus to be protected from the electrochemical effects resulting from the operation of the electrode. A cable system including said earthing electrode assembly, an earthign electrode and a method for installation of said earthing electrode assembly are also disclosed.
