The electrode is used to start the plasma cutting arc. A high frequency low-amperage current is passed between the electrode and the nozzle, which is seen as the pilot arc. The electrode has a slug of highly conductive (and expensive) rare metal (typically Hafnium or Zirconium) inserted into its end.
