Right.
CC means Constant Current, the PS is holding the current constant and varying the voltage as the load changes. CV (Constant Voltage) does the opposite.

This simple test will indicate how much the racking is interfering with CC operation. The Ti racking will have some adverse effect on CC operation, because it doesn't anodize with the aluminum. This test should give an indication if its actually bad enough to be a problem. You should do this with a typical batch size, since this counts too.

Do the test, and post your voltage and current readings (before removing a plate and after) and I'll walk you through the math.
