Electro galvanized finish for anchor bolts

Currently, I am working in steel building manufacturing company. I want to know disadvantages and advantages, instead of hot-dip galvanizing finish if electro galvanized finish is given to J-type steel anchor bolt which needs to be embedded in the concrete. What will be its behavior and result?

Mehaboob: Hot dip galvanizing will provide long-term corrosion protection on the J-bar anchors. The coating must be thin enough to accept the nuts which will go on the parts after going into the cement.
