Some results are presented of relaxation process of the triboelectric charge placed on the outer surface of human epidermis ("stratum cornium"). In measurements the characteristic time of the relaxation process was equal to tau approximately 10 divided by 10(3) sec. The measured values of tau and capacity of the high-resistivity stratum of epidermis (C approximately 10(+4) pF/sm2) lead to resistivity of "stratum cornium" R approximately 10(9) divided by 10(11) omega X sm2.
