The electrical properties of lead (Pb) nanopowder (metal) produced by “Direct Electrorefining” technique of secondary lead slag are investigated in this study. The morphology and shape of the nanostructure lead powder were examined using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The particles size is confirmed using a transmission electron microscope (TEM). The good stability of nanoparticles is confirmed during the performed studies.The investigation of the DC conductivity, dielectric constant, dielectric loss and AC conductivity as a function of frequency, temperature of nano-particles are done. The sample’s form is a compressed pellets of lead nanoparticles. The results of this study are expected to reflect on understanding the effect of finite nano size powder on the electrical conduction measurements. Plots of the experimental results obtained are reported for various parameters, comparisons are done as well. The successful calculations of temperature dependent resistance value confirm its semi-conducting nature and explore its potential applications in various industries.
