Testing is carried out at a low voltage, contact being made with the defect by means of a conductive solution.The test specimen shall be cleaned with a detergent solution, rinsed with tap water and dried by dabbing with a sheet of cloth or paper. When the specimen is tested within 24 h of firing, cleaning with detergent solution is not necessary. The enamel coating shall have a temperature not greater than 30 °C.8 Procedure 8.1 Electrical detection (method A) Mark the area to be tested by using a felt tip marker or adhesive tape. Connect the basis metal of the test specimen to the negative pole of the power source (6.1.1). Then, connect the test electrode, the sponge (6.1.2), with the positive pole of the power source (6.1.1). Soak the test electrode with the test reagent (see Clause 5). Check the electrical connection between the apparatus of 6.1.1, 6.1.2 and 6.1.3 by touching the basis metal with the test electrode. The connection is correct if the measuring instrument (6.1.3) gives an indication. Progressively scan the total enamelled test area while moving the test electrode at a speed not greater than 0,2 m/s. Count the number of electrical signals and locate the defects. 8.2 Optical detection (method B) Mark the test area by using a felt tip marker or adhesive tape. Connect the basis metal of the test specimen to the negative pole of the power source (6.2.1). Then connect the test electrode, the wet paper (6.2.2), with the positive pole of the power source (6.2.1). Soak the test electrode (6.2.2) with the test reagent (see Clause 5) and apply it, without air inclusions, to the test area. Switch on the power source (6.2.1) and switch it of after 2 min. Within 1 min of switching it off, count the number of defects. Each defect will be indicated by a red coloured spot visible on the test electrode (6.2.2).BS EN ISO 8289-1 pdf download.
