In fact I have no idea what you have in your mind. After adding a missing brace
I found three objects (see image at p.b.i.(=povray.binary.images)
http://news.povray.org/povray.binaries.images/thread/%3Cweb.52d185b2525976c8df648c9e0%40news.povray.org%3E/
 - I have changed your textures to see the shapes better). Most likely the red
and the blue should be united. Will you have a grid-like texture layered above
your silver and glass?

I assume your electrodes are the yellow object. What do you mean with undulating
it?

BTW: It would be more convenient to have a complete scene (with cam and lights
and so on) to judge and not only a fragment.

BTW2: I just played with Kurtz le pirates lighting issues here
