Pavlova UDC 621.317.333:621.317.723 Domestic instruments used to measure specific resistances of dielectric materials are not produced under assembly-line conditions. Organizations involved in the design, produc- tion, and use of electrically insulated materials are forced to use either imported devices or series-produced tera ohmmeters with handmade electrode blocks or self-produced devices. As a result measurements in this field are not standardized and are unreliable, while the specific resistances of dielectrics, particularly of high-resistance dielectrics, obtained by various organizations, may differ by ratios of two to three. A type PS-I attachment for the measurement of resistances (Fig. i) has been developed at the All-Union Scientific-Research Institute of Scientific Instruments. This device, in conjunction with either the EM-I or ITN-7 electrometers, makes it possible to measure bulk and surface specific resistances of solid insulating materials. The PS-I attachment has stan- dard voltage supplies and an electrode unit that can be used to measure bulk and surface spe- cific resistances of dielectrics. The standard voltage is fed to the electrode block through a decision device; the sample to be measured is situated in the electrode block.
