## In granular superconductors there are two distinct measurable electrical resistivities, namely the normal state resistivity and the paracoherent resistivity. For the latter, we understand the resistivity due only to the intergrain boundaries, i.e. when the intragrains have become superconductin

✦ Synopsis
Recent measurements of critical densities at zero applied magnetic field, Ic, as a function of temperature, and the electrical resistivity, p, in polycrystalline YBa2Cu307-5 have shown a close relationship between the normal state resistivity and Ic. More precisely, Ic is found to be inversely proportional to the average intergrain resistivity, Pct-In this work we extend these measurements of Ic and Pct to other two families of HTSC's: HoBa2Cu3OT_8 and Bil.5Pb0.sSr2Ca2Cu3Oy. Our results confirm the validity of the above mentioned relationship between Ic and Pct in these different ceramic HTSC compounds.
