Abstract
A support for a melting electrode used in a glass melting bath. The support includes concentric tubes which provide for the circulation of a cooling fluid within the support. A current is provided through the outer tube to the electrode. The surface of the outer tube is electrically insulated and may be protected by a second cooling system outside the electrical insulation.
