T.O. 33B-1-14-774.7.1.24 MeasurementOfConductivity.Absolute values of conductivity are usually determined by measuring the resistivity of a metal under very closelycontrolled laboratory conditions. Conductivity is calculated as the reciprocal of resistivity as follows:C=1/RWhere:C = Conductivity mhos/inchR = Resistivity ohm.inchConductivity can be converted to % IACS units as described in section 4.2.2.1.1.34.7.1.25 FieldMeasurementOfConductivity.For determination of electrical conductivity under production and field conditions, eddy current instrumentation isemployed. The eddy current instruments are calibrated against standards of known conductivity. When available,instruments designed specifically for measurement of conductivity are used. These instruments measure conductivitydirectly in % IACS.Table 4-7.
