Under the KAERI and JAEA agreement, in development of post irradiation exam technology, as a matter about nuclear safety until now, technical information has been interchanged about hot examination technology, such as recycling technique of a irradiated capsule, nano level analytical skills indispensable to the newest irradiation research, telemetering technology, etc. between KAERI and JAEA. In above activity, a part of the program 18 (Program 18: Post Irradiation Examination and Evaluation Technique of Irradiated Materials), in order to raise the post irradiation exam technology that is currently performed with both facilities, implementation of the round robin test was proposed. A test prepares a standard sample, measures it with both measuring instrument, and compares test data. This test was taken as the eddy current Test which is a part of a nondestructive test.
