The electrical characteristics of river water, brackish water, swamp water, spring water, and rain water can be determined by using electrodes. The electrode pairs of this research are Cu-Zn and C-Zn electrode. The electrical characteristics measurement of river water, brackish water, swamp water, spring water, and rain water are connected with a 1,2watt LED load and without load. The electrolyte cell consisted of 20 cell, which were arranged in series with a volume of ±200 ml per cell. The maximum current (I) which were produced by Cu-Zn electrode using brackish water is 1,58 mA; river water is 0,8 mA; swamp water is 0,57 mA;spring water is 0,21 mA; and rain water is 0,01 mA. Meanwhile The maximum current (I) which were produced by C-Zn electrode using brackish water is 1,54 mA; river water is 0,01 mA; swamp water is 0,8 mA;spring water is 0,26 mA; and rain water is 0,09 mA. The type of water that has the best electrical characteristic are brackish water with light intensity of 1192 lux and river water with light intensity of 121 lux.
