A leakage current collector must be installed at the water inlet,
and another at the outlet of the unit, and these shall be electrically 
insulated from the unit. The installation of the collectors shall be
such that all water entering and leaving the unit flows through the 
two collectors, as shown in Figure 01. The length of the leakage current
collectors shall be made of a corrosion resistant metal and shall be
