In Nelson's cell, three main chemicals are obtained as products that are Hydrogen gas, Chlorine gas and NaOH whereas in down's cell chlorine gas and sodium metal is produced as a product.

In Down's cell, graphite is used as anode and iron is used as cathode. But, in Nelson's cell perforated steels is made cathode and grapite as anode.
