Note the direction of the primary current (I p ) and the resultant eddy current (I E ).<br />

I E extends some distance into the test object. Another important observation<br />

is that I E is generated in the same plane in which the coil is wound. Figure 1.6<br />

emphasizes this point with a loop coil surrounding a cylindrical test object (4).<br />

Important observation is that<br />

I E is generated in the same<br />

plane in which the coil is<br />

wound & in opposite direction<br />

of I p<br />
