Abstract :
A calibrated standard resistance (R/sub s/)is indispensable in order to perform reliable temperature measurements with a Standard Platinum Resistance Thermometer (SPRT). Since in many instances the calibration of such R/sub s/ is difficult to achieve, a novel method for such calibration using two SPRTs, a bridge and a bath is proposed.
