Abstract
A method of compensating the magnetic fields of adjacent rows of transversely arranged igneous electrolysis cells, in which the distribution of the current in the conductors feeding the anode of a downstream cell from the cathode of the adjacent upstream cell is modified so as to superimpose upon the cell an electrical loop which produces an additional magnetic field substantially equal to that created by the adjacent row and opposite to it in direction, wherein the electrical loop develops its compensating effect solely on the outer head of the electrolysis cell.
