hi all
I need to put an electrical supply to three steel containers sited next to one another. I intend take it to a db in one of the containers and feed dbs in the other two from the db.
Firstly is it ok to put one electrode in for the main db or does each container db require an electrode.
Secondly, I havent confirmed if the main earth system is tns or tncs but if its tns, are electrodes still required I presume they would be

Thankyou
