Hello again:

Thanks for your comments on the PE Grounding!

This brings up amother question on protective coatings.

I have been promoting painted and masked conductive
coatings for the enclosures/chassis enclosures for
both EMC reasons and Class I safety reasons.   Typical
enclosures employed are required to be NEMA 12 in our
industrial applications. 

The mechanical engineers have been using clear
iridited aluminum with paint masking or clear zinc
cromate on the steel enclosures. The cost of masking
and the zinc is questioned.

Does anyone have some recommendations as to finishes
that are good conductive protective coatings, durable,
aesthetically pleasing and economical?

It would be nice to become something other then a pain in
future design reviews.

Thanks again for your time?
