I believe the language said something like: "the contact discharge tip
shall be applied to any coating not expressly declared as insulative"
Could be wrong though.

Worldly Experts,
I have a question regarding the suitability of contact mode ESD
testing to plated metal surfaces. I understand the wording in IEC
61000-4-2 regarding painted and bare metal. Does the same logic used
for painted metal surfaces also apply to other coatings (anodized,
plated, passivated etc.)? These are not addressed in the Standard.
adTHANKSvance,
Bob Sykes
