Abstract. The natural electrical conductivity of several organic liquids has been measured using transformer-coupled ratio arm bridges over a range of temperatures and pressures. Among these, n-hexane, diethyl hexyl sebacate and several alcohols showed a tendency for conductivity to fall with pressure. However, diethyl ether, carbon disulphide and, above 2500 bar, castor oil showed a tendency for conductivity to rise with pressure.
