For harsh environments (presence of fair to good ionic conductors), all metals

in contact with each other should be no more than one level of the chart apart to

minimize corrosion. This is shown by the dark blue regions of the plating bar

chart under specific platings. Outdoor applications, high humidity and salt air

fall into this category.

For normal environments (storage in warehouses or non-temperature/humidity-

controlled environments, etc.), the difference between dissimilar metals should

not exceed 0.25 volts (5 chart levels counting the origin). This is shown by the

light blue regions of the chart under specific platings.
