Two electrodes in a solution

I appreciate if anyone can assist me with the question I’m having. Assume a system where there are three stainless Steele electrodes dipped in a NaCl solution. I want to apply a square shaped voltage pulse with a certain frequency to one of the electrodes while the second electrode is grounded and the third electrode is floating (isolated from the other two and not connected to anything). I want to visualize
1. electric fields in the solution
2. currents inside the solution/through the grounded electrode
3. positive and negative charges inside the solution and around electrodes
4. potential on the floating electrode
Currently I’m using only "EC" module to do the simulation and I’m not sure if I’m getting the correct results for the currents and for the charge distributions. Can I do such a simulation with just "EC" module or do I need to use an "Electrochemical" module as well. Any suggestion or comment is much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
