were electricity

Drei mehrere Meter hohe Söderberg-Elektroden, zu einem gleichseitigen Dreieck angeordnet, ragten in das Ofengefäß, wurden unter Strom gesetzt, und da das Material, aus dem sie bestanden, dem Strom Widerstand leistete, wurden die Elektroden heiß, ein bis zu 3 000°C heißer Lichtbogen entstand.
Three Soderberg electrodes, several metres high and arranged in an equilateral triangle, jutted down into the furnace, were electrically charged and, since the material from which they were made formed resistance, became hot, creating an arc with a temperature of up to 3,000°C.
