TEEL 3162






   
The magnitude of the resistance can be determine using an ohmmeter, the color code, or reading its printed value. The reading method will depend on the resistor construction. Practice the color code to become an expert.

The color code is used in carbon resistors.



You can find printed values in ceramic or wire-wound resistors.
