1. An electrode assembly for an electrochemical process comprising:
at least one current supply device;
at least two elongated continuous current distribution bars, each comprising integrated first and second ends; and
a sheet-shaped electrode substrate attached to the at least two elongated continuous current distribution bars and having a longitudinal extension, which is vertical in a mounted orientation and a lateral extension, which is horizontal in the mounted orientation;
wherein each of the at least two elongated continuous current distribution bars comprises a first portion attached to the current supply device, a second portion extending along the electrode substrate, and a third portion extending between the first and second portions,
wherein each of the at least two elongated continuous current distribution bars is bent between its first and second ends, wherein the second portion at least partly extends longitudinally along the electrode substrate, and
wherein the current supply device is laterally and longitudinally positioned beyond the electrode substrate.
