    All MAGE1 sensors are supplied with a built in earthing electrodes that are sufficient for all applications with metal pipes and tanks. However on applications where all pipes and tanks are manufactured from plastic, it is recommended that earthing rings are also installed to ensure the maximum resistance of the sensor to earth is <1 ohm.
