Dear Axil, I think you are correct. I would only add one thing and that is that the loading current (DC) also appears to be necessary in electrolysis.
I have been getting some interesting results using simultaneous DC and AC currents with 4 electrodes in the cell with the DC cathode placed in between the electrodes for AC current. So far, I have seen excess heating in 10/13 experimental runs, compared with 0/4 in control runs using galvanized steel cathode. I have some new equipment coming where I'm hoping to tease apart whether high voltage or high current pulses are more important. I should have data on 3 more experiments by the time I get home from work today (it runs automatically and emails the results to me when it finishes). So, I'm getting some interesting results, but I'll keep trying to disprove them.
