1 Scope

1.1 This standard describes a procedure for determining thechange of resistance with temperature of alloy wire (includingmaterial of non-circular section) used for resistance standards andprecision resistors for electrical apparatus. The maximum range oftemperature covered is -65�C to +200�C. This standard provides for the presentation of theresults in the form of a graph, as a change of resistance betweenspecified temperatures, or as the coefficients in aresistance/temperature equation.
