Abstract
Conductive measuring electrodes, of a capacitive probe having a grounded rd electrode positioned therebetween shield a probe circuit, provides mutual capacitance measurements which way as a function of changes in impedance of dielectric material being monitored as it undergoes a curing process. The probe is positioned in non-embedded relation to the dielectric material to form a sensitivity region therein through which an electric field extends between the conductive measuring electrodes of the probe to establish said variable mutual capacitance measurements without extraneous influences.
