Hi Aleksey, Thank you for the answer, it helps a lot.

The program calculates V_total = V_cathode (conventional, H2 side) - V_anode (conventional, O2 side). Therefore, when I include a positive value for the potential, then my V_total is negative. This can generate problems since my OCV is designed as positive (+0.84V).

Shall I consider a negative voltage of, let's say, -1.4 V in the O2 side? Maybe I should state that the OCV is -0.84V?

I hope you can hep me with this matter.

Thank you,

Raúl
