Abstract

A fuel cell, including: first and second electrochemical cells; a two-pole plate arranged between the first and second electrochemical cells, including a conductor support delimiting a first flow channel facing the first electrochemical cell and extending between an air inlet and a water outlet, and including a first conductive coating attached to the conductor support at the air inlet of the first flow channel and including a second conductive coating fastened to the conductor support at the middle part of the first flow channel, the second conductor coating having an electrical surface resistance greater than that of the first conductive coating.
