The measured temperature of the central metal electrode during operation is relatively high, reaching more than 360°. The high temperature aggravates the ablation and peeling at the arc root of the central metal electrode, resulting in excessive loss of the central metal electrode, affecting production efficiency.

Under the same working conditions, the temperature of the center electrode 4 drops to below 200°, and the wear rate of the center electrode 4 is significantly reduced.
