Abstract: A method for installing a sensor on a component is provided. The method includes attaching the sensor to a surface of the component. The method includes covering the sensor using a metal wire. The method includes applying a multilayer coating on the metal wire. Applying the multilayer coating includes applying a first coating. The first coating is capable of being machined. Applying the multilayer coating includes machining the first coating and applying a second coating over the first coating. The second coating is a ceramic oxide and the second coating is configured to serve as a thermal and dielectric barrier. Applying the multilayer coating also includes applying a third coating over the second coating. The third coating is configured to provide erosion resistance.
