(Nonmandatory Information)
X. RESISTIVITY
X1.1 “Resistivity” is used in place of “conductivity.”The value of 0.15328V·g/m2 at 20°C (68°F) is theinternational standard for the resistivity of annealedcopper equal to 100% conductivity. This term meansthat a wire 1 m inlength and weighing 1 g, wouldhave a resistance of 0.15328V. This is equivalent toa resistivity value of 875.20V·lb/mile2, which signifiesthe resistance of a wire 1 mile in length weighing 1lb. It is also equivalent, for example, to 1.7241mV/cm of length of a bar 1 cm2 in cross section. Acomplete discussion of this subject is contained inNBSHandbook 100of the National Institute of StandardsTechnology. Relationships which may be useful inconnection with the values of resistivity prescribed inthis specification are as shown in Table X1.1, eachcolumn containing equivalent expressions at 20°C(68°F).
