Hi Christopher,
I'm with Gary in that I commend you for looking at this. I also
agree with Jim Lux that there are vast papers on the subject, but
not all those papers are easily accessed for the general public.
Most skin effect papers will deal with RF cabling and pcb
engineering. But regarding human body skin depth, affects at F with
X current, well, I don't know how much is actually written about
(possibly several papers). It would be an interesting study. I also
look forward to what you can bring to light.

Hello, everybody,
I've been reading up on the skin effect, and there's nothing that's
very conclusive on it. I have seen arguments that go either way,
but no actual studies. I'm in the process of testing this. If you'd
like to read about my test set-up, and, possibly, donate to the
cause, you may go to my website at

I am in need of a microscope and capacitors, as described on the
page, and I was wondering if anybody knew of a way to acquire said
items. I haven't been able to find any microscopes powerful enough
for under $100 to test the burning of the tissue.
I was wondering if anybody knew of any group that had tested the
skin effect on biological conductors.
The theory for the skin effect is simple, but it is hard to
understand exactly what forces are to blame. It's also difficult to
determine what amperage is enough to cause RF burns over extended periods.
