be rectified is alternating,flowing alternately in opposite directions, and the object of therectifier is to allow currents of one direction only to pass. Thealuminium cell has been mostly used for the purpose, but other cellsexhibit the same properties; the effect is not so novel as mostpeople… … Fig. 202.—ElectrolyticCurrent Interrupter Electrolytic Rectifier the anode and the lead the cathode, the resistance is much less ;hence, while small current passes in one direction, large currentpasses in the other direction. When the lead is anode its resistance is 207, and the cathode silver, 108…
