When the voltage is applied to the electrode in contact with the sample containing the redox substance, the first stage of sweeping the voltage, the second stage of measuring the current flowing through the electrode, and when the integrated value of the current falls within the reference range The third stage for determining whether to sweep the voltage in the direction opposite to the sweep direction in the previous sweep stage or to end the voltage sweep, and the voltage value when it is determined to end the voltage sweep. A fourth stage for estimating the equilibrium potential of the redox material, and a fifth stage for sweeping the voltage in a direction opposite to the sweep direction in the previous sweep stage when it is determined to sweep the voltage. A potential estimation method is provided.
