Abstract
An electrode contact assembly includes spaced-apart U-shaped hollow tubular members each having a contact shoe affixed to each leg. A pressure ring surrounds the contact shoes for forcing the same into pressure engagement with the surface of an electrode. The tubular members are adapted for connection to sources of electrical energy and cooling fluid. A support ring concentric with the electrode and spaced above the pressure ring independently supports the pressure ring and the tubular members.
