The Standard Depth of Penetration δ<br />

The Standard Depth of Penetration can be expressed as:<br />

δ = (πfμσ) -½<br />

Where:<br />

δ = One standard depth of penetration; 1/e of the surface current<br />

density (37%) in meter, m<br />

f = Frequency of the AC primary current in Hz<br />

μ = Permeability of the test object in Henry per meter, H∙m -1<br />

σ = Conductivity of the test object in Siemens per meter, S∙m -1<br />
