How it works
EDDY CURRENT TESTING IS BASED ON THE PRINCIPLE OF A CONDUCTOR BEING EXPOSED TO A PULSATING FIELD WHICH IN TURN THE CONDUCTOR WILL DEVELOP WITHIN ITSELF ITS OWN ELECTRICAL CURRENT. THIS CURRENT FLOWS IN A DIRECTION PERPENDICULAR TO THE SUPPLY CURRENT.
EDDY CURRENT TESTING IS SIMPLY ONE FORM OF NON DESTRUCTIVE TESTING AND IS BASED ON THE THEORY OF BEING A COMPARISON TEST. MEANING: WE ARE TAKING AN IDENTICAL SPECIMEN (STANDARD) TO THE TUBING UNDER TEST. THIS STANDARD HAS KNOWN INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL DEFECTS OF A KNOWN DEPTH AND MAGNITUDE AND WE ARE COMPARING THE TEST RESULTS TO THAT STANDARD.
