It is no doubt a high dollar item. It is used to calibrate a meter, but it is on the high end (needless to say!) of the scale. I can use one that is considerably lower in resistance, but it would have been great to have one at the high end for checking the calibration. If I can locate a 500 meg

The interesting thing here is that in a half watt resistor of 500,000 mega ohms, the current must be less that 1 micro amps and that would be at a voltage of 500,000 volts. That resistor would need to be longer than a couple of inches to prevent it for arcing around the outside and as some
