In electroplating, the broad role of cathode and anode is often neglected. This study aims to simultaneously prove the electric current in the three pairs of probes in the cathode-anode direction. It also describes the effect of variations in the anode-cathode area ratio. This result proves that the greater the ratio, the greater the current density in all pairs of probes. Data retrieval used a current sensor current probe DCP-BTA Vernier displayed on a computer screen with the help of Logger Pro software. The results in the study show that the current at every point in the measurement has a less identical graph. In electroplating, nickel (Ni)-1 has a relatively constant amplitude than nickel (Ni)-2. The variation of the anode area ratio at the first nickel (Ni) is 1: 0.821. The ratio of the anode area to the second nickel (Ni) is 1: 0.343. From the analysis results, the first nickel (Ni) has a relatively constant amplitude compared to the second nickel (Ni).
