Chemical Treatment Or Contamination
Readings may be affected by certain flame retardants,
preservatives, aluminium paint and by contamination by
salt water. Treat all readings on such wood as indicative
readings only.
Surface Moisture
Surface moisture due to wetting or condensation can
affect readings when uninsulated pins are used. It is rec-
ommended that insulated pins such as SP-52 are used in
conjunction with a Hammer Action electrode. As the pins
are driven into the wood, readings can be taken at differ-
ent depths, unaffected by moisture on the surface.
