The invention provides an
aluminum electrolysis cell cathode bus short circuit device and an implementation method thereof, and relates to the technical field of
aluminum electrolysis. Short-circuit ports are preset at the end parts of
cell periphery buses of the device and are used for being connected with a short-circuit device when the cells are stopped, and the
cell periphery buses between adjacent electrolytic cells are physically isolated through air intervals in a non-short-circuit state; each
short circuit port is arranged between two adjacent sections of groove periphery buses, comprises an insulating block, an insulating sleeve and a composite insulating stud, and is used for constructing physical isolation and forming detachable connection when needed; and the short-circuit device is a pluggable conductive structural member, comprises a conductive block and a crimping contact surface, and is used for being inserted into the short-circuit port when the cell needs to be stopped, so that the
electrical connection between the
peripheral buses of the adjacent electrolytic cells is realized. According to the method, the
short circuit port is arranged, the short circuit device is prepared, and the short circuit device is inserted during cell stopping to realize short circuit operation, so that the method has the advantages of simple structure, high safety, high operation efficiency and convenience in maintenance, and is suitable for
aluminum electrolysis series devices with the current intensity of 200-800kA.
