ABSTRACT. We describe the construction and testing of a simple and efficient low-cost resistivimeter designed for use in practical classes in Applied Geophysics. The equipment was successfully tested in a vertical electrical sounding (VES) performed on sandy terrain within the campus of the Universidade Federal de Sergipe, Brazil. The VES results were in good agreement with the profiles obtained from two boreholes located approximately 500 m from the test area, clearly demonstrating the efficiency of the equipment and the adopted methodology.Keywords: vertical electrical sounding, electrical resistivity, resistivity profile. RESUMO. Neste artigo, descrevemos a construção e o teste de um resistivímetro de baixo custo, simples e eficiente, concebido para ser utilizado em aulas práticas de Geofísica Aplicada. O equipamento foi testado com a realização de uma sondagem elétrica vertical (SEV) em um terreno arenoso localizado no campus da Universidade Federal de Sergipe, Brasil. Os resultados obtidos nesta SEV apresentaram boa concordância com os perfis observados em dois poços de sondagem localizados a 500 m da área de teste, fato que comprovou a eficiência do equipamento e da metodologia adotada.Palavras-chave: sondagem elétrica vertical, resistividade elétrica, perfil de resistividade.
