Skin effects isolated conductors

The phenomenon uneven distribution of current within the same conductor due to the inductive effect is known as the skin effect and results in an increased effective resistance of the conductor. The ratio of a.c. to d.c. resistance, R JR. is the measure of the skin effect and is known as the skin effect ratio . Figure 28.13(a) illustrates the skin elTect for various types and sizes of aluminium in flat sections. For easy reference, the skin effects in isolated round (solid or hollow) and channel conductors (in box form) are also shown in Figures 28.13(b) and (c) respectively.
