The electrode resistance of semiconducting PTC BaTiO3 ceramic material was studied in some detail. Comme-rical In-Ag paste In-Ga alloy and electroless plated Ni as well as evaporated Al were chosen as electrode. The contact resistance of electroded samples were measured by both dc resistivity and ac impedance analysis. The aging effect on contact resistance under cyclic loading from -1$0^{\circ}C$ to 85$^{\circ}C$ was also monitored for the prolonged period of time. In case of Al electroded samples the heat treatment and protective coating had effects on the stability against contact resistance degradation. It was also found that the samples with commercial In-Ag paste and electroless plated Ni electrode had good properties of contact resistance against aging.
