Polarité. Elle est dite "directe" ou négative si l'électrode est cathode (-). Elle est dite "inverse" ou positive si l'électrode est anode (+). L'anode étant (...) plus chaude que la cathode, on choisit la polarité selon que l'on désire faciliter la fusion de la pièce ou de l'électrode. 2, record 1, French, - courant%20continu%2D%C3%A9lectrode%20positive
