Use the External Short node to connect two electrodes over an external connector with a given Resistance R (SI unit: ohm).

The boundary selected in the External Short node will be set to a constant potential, ϕs,here, and the integrated current over the boundary will be computed according to Ohm’s law:

where ϕs,there (V) is the potential of the connected electrode. Use the Connected Potential list to choose among available connection potentials for the value of ϕs,there.
