(OP)
Can someone explain in detail what are the field tests which can be carried to confirm anode material(We are using imressed current anodes for tank bottm protection-mixed metal oxide anodes)before installtion.i know we can get the material confirmation certificates from manufucturer. Whats are the simple field tests which confirm the quality of anode materials?

I would want to confirm the material composition of SACRIFICIAL anodes.
I have not heard of confirming the material of an IMPRESSED CURRENT anode. Instead, I merely ensure the purchase spec is properly written. I do care about the outer coating, but I've not heard of there being problems.
