In direct-current electrode positive, the electrode is positive, and the work is negative.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In direct-current electrode positive (DCEP) welding, the electrode is positively charged and the workpiece is negatively charged. Therefore, the workpiece becomes the negative terminal, and the electrode becomes the positive terminal. Since work is done when positive charges move towards negative charges, the work done on the electrode is negative.
