In the oxidation mode, for thickness detection, a surface of known area is immersed in an anodic solution using a suitable electrolyte to which a constant current is applied. Complete dissolution of the metal layer can be detected by a change in the electrode potential. The current is proportional to the mass of metal that is oxidized. By this process, all the metal layers can be removed from the substrate in succession under the action of the current and the supporting electrolyte, respectively.

In this mode the reducing element (e.g. oxide) will be assigned a specific potential and removed from the surface during the measurement.
The time at which a specific potential is present at the electrode during oxidation or reduction of the coating is recorded. The time during which this potential lasts after the constant current is applied is called the phase inversion time t. The relationship between the oxidation or reduction masses is determined according to Faraday's law. For metallic or non-metallic coatings, the molecular weight M, the number of electrons n and the density ρ are constants. The plating thickness d depends only on the applied current i and the area a from which the plating is stripped, which is determined by the length and width of the pad on the test specimen. Therefore, the thickness can be obtained by the following equation.
