An atmospheric corrosion monitor (ACM) has been developed for monitoring atmospheric corrosion of Zn‐coated iron and tin and SnPb coated copper in salt spray and hot steam atmosphere using the electrochemical technique of polarization resistance R p . ACM for Sn and SnPb coatings is made using the printed circuits technology. The measurement of atmospheric corrosion using the R p principle and the impulse galvanostatic method, is a novelty in the atmospheric corrosion studies. The method is fast, sensitive, non‐destructive and suitable for all the anodic and cathodic coatings used on metals.
