Abstract
The Resistive Plate Counters(RPC) have been provided for K-L(0) and mu on detection in the BELLE experiment at KEK. The glass RPCs have been extensively tested using single cosmic-ray muons. We report on the per formance of the endcap RPC with emphasis on detection efficiency and m ultiple hits of readout strips.
