Estimated Costs: (Suggested Retail Prices)
Pt on Cu cored Ti		MMO on Cu cored Ti
Connector Lead Wires		Estimated Man-hours for Installation
Reference Electrodes

NOTES:
1.Required materials based on a single circuit with a power feed on each end and intermediate tee feeds as required. Tee-end feeds are recommended every 1,000 ft. (300 m). One reference electrode is recommended for every 50 feet (15 m) of tank diameter.
2. Pt and MMO perform the same in this application. Choice is based on personal preference.
3. Estimates based on 1/3 man-hr. per anode. Experienced crews should take less time.
4.These calculations are based on protecting only one surface. If two surfaces are being protected, double the desired current density.
