very important, especially for small currents and low voltages.5
Silver 0. This
surface protection sufficient for almost all industrial connectors

Gold 0. The brass contacts are first
plated with 3-pm nickel layer (diffusion barrier) then with 2-pm gold
layer the contact area.12 8.

barrier.
This surface protection used for aggressive environments.3 Nickel
A 5-pm layer nickel applied protect large-surface parts, such earth
panels.4. brownish
sulphide layer easily develops its surface.069 14. The electrical
conductivity gold significantly less than that silver, but due its
constant contact resistance, used special applications.017 58
