ABSTRACT:
An electrical shunting switch assembly is adapted to be connected across the terminals of an electrolytic cell. The switch assembly acts as a parallel current carrying shunt path around the cell when the switches of the assembly are in the closed, current carrying position. The switch assembly comprises a plurality of electrically parallel branch conductor paths which each include at least one vacuum switch and a series-connected resistor. The switch assembly includes means for asynchronously, individually operating the vacuum switches to open the switches periodically and divert an increased portion of the current from the switch assembly back through the electrolytic cell when the voltage across the switch assembly exceeds the cell electrolyzing potential.
