CCEM-K2 Key Comparison of 10 Mohm and 1 Gohm Resistance Standards

Abstract

An international comparison of dc resistance at 10 Mohm and 1 Gohm was organized under the auspices of the Consultative Committee for Electricity and Magnetism (CCEM) and piloted by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) with 14 other national metrology institutes (NMIs) participating. The transport standards were measured by the participating NMIs during a three-and-a-half year period beginning August 1996 and concluding March 2000. The transport standards used for this comparison were a set of three wirewound 10 Mohm standard resistors and three film-type 1 Gohm standards resistors, all packaged at NIST for this key comparison. The comparison has demonstrated that all participating NMIs agree with the key comparison reference value (KCRV) at 10 Mohm and 1 Gohm within the 95% confidence level, and most NMIs agree within the 99% confidence level.
