/ Abstract
We have performed a metrological characterization of the quantum Hall resistance in a 1 $μ$m wide graphene Hall-bar. The longitudinal resistivity in the center of the $ν=\pm 2$ quantum Hall plateaus vanishes within the measurement noise of 20 m$Ω$ upto 2 $μ$A. Our results show that the quantization of these plateaus is within the experimental uncertainty (15 ppm for 1.5$ μ$A current) equal to that in conventional semiconductors. The principal limitation of the present experiments are the relatively high contact resistances in the quantum Hall regime, leading to a significantly increased noise across the voltage contacts and a heating of the sample when a high current is applied.
