Electroless nickel plated connector vs. cadmium plated connector

Kablolama sirasinda Elektroless nikel kaplamali konnektor ile cadmium kaplamali konnektor un birlikte baglanmasi durumunda herhangi bir korozyon olusumuna sebep teskil edermi.

We want to use an electroless nickel plated connector with a cadmium plated connector. Will this connection cause any corrosion problem?

Hi, Inci. If the environment is hostile, yes it will. Perhaps you can plate cadmium on top of the electroless nickel. Good luck.
