الوصف: The India-based Neutrino Observatory (INO) is an approved multi-institutional experiment of India. It will use maximum 30,000 Resistive Plate Chamber (RPC) of size 2x2m as an active detector in which each will be sandwiched between two iron plates. Each RPC detectors will be made up of 3mm thick glass (or Bakelite) plates whose one surface will be coated with graphite paint to work as electrode. To achieve effective and uniform electric field, the coated graphite paint must have uniform distribution over the glass surface. Uniformity can be demonstrated by measuring the surface resistance of the coated graphite paint. However, manual measurement of 60,000 electrodes with the help of multimeter and the jig demands huge amount of person-hour with compromised accuracy, and therefore that requires the need and importance of the automatic scanning system. An advanced automatic scanning system (ASS) has been designed & developed to fulfill the required needs and overcome the shortcomings of the initially developed system. Measurement are sensitive to the contact pressure between the jig and RPC electrode's surface. In this paper, various parameters of the ASS have been precisely fixed. Obtained results are compared with the standard one and found satisfactory within error. It has been observed that for obtaining the correct and safe value of surface resistance, applied pressure value in terms of force should be in the range of 9-11 Newton.
