Marinas or other recreational bodies of water need to be closely monitored for electrical safety. More often than is often identified electrical currents discharge into bodies of water, especially in recreational environments where power sources are used on pontoons, boardwalks, piers and other elements. This unidentified, and therefore unmanaged hazard can have tragic consequences to people enjoying the environment, and of course other aquatic animals. Even when such events occur they are not always adequately identified with cause of death being identified as drowning, without identifying the cause.
An example from a recreational body of water in the United States saw multiple swimmers drowning in a specific area. As such authorities investigated on the presumption of locating a previously unidentified strong undercurrent, however the actual cause was electricity discharging in that location. Any swimmer encountering the electricity would experience extreme muscle contractions that would effectively paralyze them, and as such prevent them from swimming, ultimately resulting in death. That so many deaths were completely avoidable only enhances the tragedy.
Rectifications saw our marine electrodes being installed, providing electrical safety for all users and inhabitants of that environment.
