  • Frequency – Skin effect increases with the increase in frequency.
  • Diameter – It increases with the increase in diameter of the conductor.
  • The shape of the conductor – Skin effect is more in the solid conductor and less in the stranded conductor because the surface area of the solid conductor is more.
  • Type of material – Skin effect increase with the increase in the permeability of the material (Permeability is the ability of material to support the formation of the magnetic field
