The finest surfaces are created with gold plating. The electrical
conductivity gold significantly less than that silver, but due its
constant contact resistance, used special applications. The brass contacts are first
plated with 3-pm nickel layer (diffusion barrier) then with 2-pm gold
layer the contact area. brownish
