The potentiometric measurement result for a high resistance up to $100P{\Omega}$ using a low resistance, a low voltage source and a commercial digital multimeter(DMM) is presented. With the method, a resistance can be easily, fast and economically measured. Using the method, resistance ranges over the $10G{\Omega}$ range which is difficult to measure using a commercial DMM and resistance ranges between $100T{\Omega}$ and $100P{\Omega}$ which cannot measure using an insulation tester were measured within accuracy of a few percent. It is expected that it can be useful to determine the temperature and voltage effect of a high resistance and an insulation material because it uses a reference resistance with a low resistance, very low temperature and voltage effect. Besides, it is expected that it can be useful to calibrate a dc high voltage divider with a large resistance ratio and a very low resistance because arbitrary resistance ratio measurements are possible with it.

We present a technique for measuring low resistance ranges of a decade resistor with a 4-Terminal connection. With the technique the accuracy of 0.8 % was obtained for a 1 $m{\Omega}$ resistance of the decade resistor. We suggested a proper pattern 4-Terminal measurement results with several 4-Terminal pattern and adapters. Additionally, we should that precise measurements for low resistance can be made usung a digital multimeter(DMM) only.
