Electric conductivity, Four- Electric conductivity as one of the characteristics of a material can be
point probe methode, copper, measured through various methods in accordance with its characteristics as
alumunium, stainless steel. a conductor or non-conductor. For the semiconductor material of the
thermoelectric material, the electrical conductivity measurement requires a
special effort due to its different material natures at low and high
temperatures. The objectives of this research are to conduct the design
process of an electric conductivity testing apparatus with four-point probe
and to test its accuracy through the testing of various test materials,
namely: Stainless Steel, Aluminum, Copper, and Zinc Oxide (ZnO) dopping
Copper (Cu) with the diameter of 13 mm at various temperature levels. The
validation process was done by using conductor material at the temperature
of 290C. The result of the test shows that the values of electric conductivity
of the Stainless Steel, Copper, and Aluminum were 1.26 x 10 6 + 3.5%
Siemens/m, 4.77 x 107 + 3.5% Siemens/m, and 3.37 x 10 7 + 3.5%
Siemens/m respectively. Aluminum had the difference of 8% out of the
reference. Then, the various materials were tested at the temperature
variations of 3 0C, 100 0C, 200 0C, 300 0C, 400 0C, and 500 0C. The result of
the test shows that the higher the temperature of the material testing was,
the lower the value of the electric conductivity was. For the semiconductor
material of ZnO dopping Cu, the testing was done at the temperature
variations of 400 0C and 450 0C, and the value of the electric conductivity
increased from 2.28 x 103 Siemens/m to 4.61 x 103 Siemens/m.
