Timescope,
It's a variable wirewound potentiometer in series with the zinc lead to the bonding system.
It regulates the zinc current, therefore adjusting the netative voltage on the bonding system.
The digital voltmeter is connected between the silver electrode and the bonding system.
Just for fun, here's our home's solar page:

We installed 12 240 watt panels with Enphase inverters a few months ago and after a teething process, we're supplying our house with most of its electrical needs in the Pacific North WET.
I added a DC bypass system so not if, but WHEN the grid goes down, we have backup power via a bid lead acid bank, a sine wave inverter and a transfer switch.
The Enphase inverters instantly shut down as they feed the grid, but the DC side feeds a standalone inverter.
Only problem, I have to reset all the clocks as the inverter has a delayed start.
Oh, the agony !! lol
