Abstract
High energy effectiveness of application of welded electric contacts of metals with different carbon materials and welded electric contacts of cathode units and burnt anodes developed at PWI is substituted. Designs of electric contact plugs (ECP) as well as arcotrons, i.e. nozzle-free torches using an oxide cathode, were developed. Examples of effective application of contact assemblies with ECP in synthesis and Acheson furnaces are given.
