Eddy-current testing (ECT) is a non-destructive testing (NDT) technique used to detect flaws in conductive materials. It involves the use of electromagnetic induction to generate eddy currents, which are loops of electrical current that are induced within the material being tested when it is exposed to a changing magnetic field.
