Abstract :
An automated measurement system for resistance scaling is developed in MIKES. The system was compared with our Cryogenic Current Comparator (CCC) resistance bridge. The results of the measurements in the range 1 Ohm-10 kOhm agreed within 0.03 ppm. The same CCC bridge is used for the measurements of the 10 mOhm resistor with a combined standard uncertainty less than 1 ppm. Temperature hysteresis was observed in some of the standard resistors during measurements of their temperature coefficients.
