Special Features:

Low-thermal, 5-way binding posts; resistors are bulk metal foil, hermetically-sealed; power dissipation is onewatt per step; can also be used as precision decade voltage dividers

Properties:

An item whose resistance is known to a high degree of accuracy which permits it to be used as a basis for determining the value of other resistances, capacitances, and/or inductances and for calibrating instruments. See also resistor, fixed (as modified) and shunt, instrument. Excludes resistor, decade.
