6.16.3.6
Inspection Procedure. Refer to Eddy Current Method, paragraph 1.4.11 and Figure 6-16.
a.
Place probe on a good area in the inspection location and null. Adjust phase as required to obtain horizontal lift-
off.
b.
Inspect the part.
c.
Any signal similar to the notches in the test block is cause for rejection.
NOTE
Either probe identified in paragraph 6.16.3.1 may be used depending primarily on the
ease of accessibility and user friendliness. If the probes are changed, steps 6.16.3.5 b.
(1), (2), and (3) shall be repeated each time a change is made.
