The invention relates to a novel standard rhodium-iron resistance thermometer, which comprises a housing, a cross-shaped skeleton, lead wires and a rhodium-iron resistance wire, wherein the cross-shaped skeleton is arranged in the housing; the rhodium-iron resistance wire is wound on the cross-shaped skeleton; and the rhodium-iron resistance wire is led out through the lead wires. The novel standard rhodium-iron resistance thermometer adopts the cross-shaped skeleton to wind the wire and is capable of realizing both temperature sensing wire support and free telescoping; the thermometer is good in stability, stable in structure, and high in resistance to vibration and impact; the skeleton is made of a quartz material, wherein the material is stable in components and does not pollute the resistance wire; and temperature measurement and temperature control stability of the standard rhodium-iron resistance thermometer can be kept for a long term.
