The invention relates to a bipolar electrode and to a diaphragm-type electrolyser equipped with such a bipolar electrode. Said bipolar electrode comprises a generally vertical supporting wall, a plurality of generally vertical, spaced parallel anode plates, transversally connected to said wall, on one side thereof, and a plurality of generally vertical, spaced parallel foraminous cathode fingers transversally connected to the opposite side of said wall, and alternating with the anodes. At least a portion of the supporting wall comprises a plurality of generally vertical elongated metallic members supporting the cathode fingers and extending each between two anode plates. The cathode fingers are in communication with one another through apertures provided through said metallic members.
