Electrogalvanize

From time to time we see a spec for electrogalvanize. Is this the same as electrozinc? If not, what is the difference?

Yes, electrogalvanize is the same as electroplated zinc. The term is most commonly used to refer to zinc plating of steel strip on a continuous strip plating line.
