Abstract :
A calculable capacitor and a quadrature bridge are used at BNM-LCIE to link capacitance unit and R/sub K/ value to the SI units. Modification of the calculable capacitance movable guard guiding and revaluation of the transfer resistors frequency dependencies have been done to improve the results of these two direct determinations. Preliminary measurements show that R/sub K/=R/sub K-90/(1+6.6 10/sup -8/) (1/spl sigma/=7.10/sup -8/).
