The possibility of using a set of unequal electrodes, within limits, in a Wenner arrangement for the measurement of apparent resistivity at small depths is explored in this paper. A procedure in which only a simple preliminary calibration is necessary to obtain the best measurements of the apparent resistivity is proposed. On the basis of some case studies, a comparison with the usual procedures to obtain the apparent resistivity from resistance measurements is carried out. The results showed that when an unequal set of electrodes was used, the procedure proposed here was the only one that guaranteed the best apparent resistivity values for any value of electrode separation in the Wenner arrangement, especially for those associated with small depths.
