I wasn't going to respond to this one because I know of no standard, and I don't know what you mean by AC, power frequency or rf. But HP/Agilent makes/used to make a bond meter with a 1 kHz signal. The purpose was partly to offset the effects of galvanic potentials: an ac measurement cancles the dc galvanic potential out.
