  • An auxiliary electrode is used in any three-electrode cell, together with a working electrode and reference electrode. [en]
  • An auxiliary electrode must not add an excessive potential burden to the cell. It is chosen for the efficiency of the electrochemical reaction and usually has a greater surface area than the working electrode. [en]
