Title: Deep submersible power electrode assembly for ground conduction of electricity

Abstract: An underground electrode adapted for ground conduction of electric current in an environment of saline and oleaginous fluids and under high hydrostatic pressure comprises a hollow tubular electrode having a cable terminal at its upper end and affixed to the lower end of an insulating cable conduit. A fluid supply conduit surrounding the cable conduit supports a permeable enclosing basket which surrounds the electrode and controls flow of fluid electrolyte over its surface.
