5.1.8 Thickness measurement of conducting coatings on conductors<br />

The thickness of one conductor on a conducting substrate, for example,<br />

metallic plating on metals, can be measured by eddy current techniques<br />

provided the ratio of the conductivity of the metals is greater than 1.5. The<br />

technique is equally applicable to low conductivity coatings on a higher<br />

conductivity substrate and high conductivity coatings on a lower conductivity<br />

substrate. It can also be applied to non-ferromagnetic conducting coatings on<br />

a ferromagnetic substrate.<br />
