I swear you will be much happy if you have delicious shorts.
Anyway, thanks for your suggestion. The current flows through either
electrode pair is 0.25mA, and I made my electrodes with 99.9%
platinum wires, with a diameter ~1.5mm. Since the section area of
electrode is small, I do have a huge current density(0.14 mA/mm^2) on
it. However, if that is exactly what caused a rapid water
electrolysis, I am now still confused why that did not happen when
there was only a single electrode pair A1-A2.
