Measurements of the electrical characteristics of discharges in the Gaseous Electronics Conference Radio-Frequency Reference Cell are reviewed here. Topics include: common sources of error in the measurements; comparisons of current and voltage data among GEC cells; the effects of gas impurities, surface conditions and the external circuitry on the reproducibility of the electrical characteristics; and comparisons of current and voltage data with results of other measurements.
