A method for determining the resistance value of a resistor arrangement

A method for determining the resistance value of a resistor arrangement (4), consisting of at least one resistance zone (5a; 5b) each having a variable resistance (R a) determining a leakage current (I a1) the application of voltage potentials (Q a2) measuring (at the connecting contacts 6a, 6b; 6c, 6d) which is established voltages (U a3) measuring a (at one of the terminals 6a, 6b; 6c, 6d) leakage current occurring (I b) measuring (for the determination of the resistance value R b1) applying a first and second voltage potential (Q
