This test method covers the determination of dc insulation resistance, volume resistance and resistivity, as well as
surface resistance and resistivity, and the corresponding electrical conductance and conductivity, of specimens of
agglomerated stone products conforming to the definition reported in EN 14618. These products are usually made
by stone aggregates bound via either resin and filler or cement and water (paste components) or a mixture of
polymer/cement and related addition (such as reinforcing fibres, electrically insulating/conducting fillers, etc.).
Resistivity/conductivity may be also used as an indirect measure of some properties of agglomerated stones
products (see Annex A).
