Abstract: An electrolyzer 1 for electrolyzing water existing between electrode plates 4, 5 disposed at a prescribed interval by imposing a voltage between the electrode plates is arranged such that at least the electrode plate 5 acting as an anode comprises a ferrite electrode including at least one hole 15 is formed therein, the interval between the hole and an extreme or terminal end of an electrode terminal 9 inserted into the hole 15 is filled with a conductive metal coupling member 16 that becomes deformed when the electrode terminal 9 is inserted in the hole so that the ferrite electrode 5 is made conductive to and arranged integrally with the electrode terminal 9.
