ABSTRACT
This research work involved the determination of different wire using meter bridge, the experiment was carried out and the results were obtained as follows, Sample A (SWG 126) with the resistivity value of 3.34 x 10-8 Ω/m, Sample B (SWG 125g) 5.02 x 10-8 Ω/m, Sample C (SWG 124g) 6.54 x 10-8 Ω/m, Sample D (SWG 123g) 7.36 x 10-8 Ω/m and Sample E (SWG 122g) with the resistivity value of 5.49 x 10-8 Ω/m.
