| Cathode: | The metal to be plated by another metal |
| Anode: | The metal to be plated onto the cathode |
| Electrolyte: | Conducting solution containing metal ions in which the anode and cathode are placed |
| Power Source: | Supplies a direct current to the anode and oxidizes the metal atoms which dissolve in the solution |
