17、ceResistance may bemeasured by any electrical circuit that enables the currentthrough the current electrodes and the potential across thepotential electrodes to be measured within 2 %. Suitabledevices for measuring current are: (1) a precision milliamme-ter,or(2) potential measurement across a refer

18、ence resistor(resistance value known within 2 % in series with the currentelectrodes. Suitable devices for measuring potential are: (1)agalvanometer having a sensitivity of 1 A or less per scaledivision in a null-voltage circuit; (2) an electrostatic voltmeterhaving a d-c resistance greater than 19

19、TV;or(3) an electrom-eter such as a multirange voltmeter having an input d-cimpedance greater than 0.1 TV (Note 1).

Because of thelarge range of resistances covered by conductive and antistaticrubbers, separate equipment for measuring resistances aboveand below approximately 50 000 V is general

21、ly desirable.NOTE 1Schematic diagrams of a typical apparatus that have beenfound to be satisfactory are shown in Figs.

Precision and Bias311.1 These precision and bias statements have been pre-pared in accordance with Practice D 4483. Refer to PracticeD 4483 for

39、 terminology and other testing and statistical con-cepts.11.2 Because of the special nature of this test and its lack ofwidespread use in the industry, a limited interlaboratory Type 1test program was used to assess precision. Two materials(rubber compositions) of different volume resistivity in the

40、form of cured sheets were prepared in one laboratory and sentto the other participating laboratory. Both laboratories wereexperienced in this testing.11.3 In each laboratory the cured rubber sheets were mea-sured for volume resistivity on two days, on each day by twodifferent operators. The within l

41、aboratory variation, therefore,contains an “operator” and “day” component of variation.11.4 A test result is the median value of three measurementsof volume resistivity.11.4.1 Table 1 gives the precision results. Due to the widerange of volume resistivity values that are possible (101000fold variati

42、on) the analysis was conducted using the (base 10)logarithms of the (test result) volume resistivity, r.11.4.2 The rather large between laboratory variation indi-cates the difficulty frequently experienced with this measure-ment by experienced laboratories and operators.11.4.3 BiasIn test method sta

43、tistical terminology, bias isthe difference between an average test value and the referenceor true test property value. Reference values do not exist forthis test method since the value or level of the test property isexclusively defined by the test method. Bias, therefore, cannotbe determined.3Supp
