    Colour coding of Resistance

    1. Colour coding of Resistance

    The carbon resistance has normally four coloured rings bands A,B,C and D .

     

    Colour bands A and B Indicates the decimal figure.

    Colour band C Indicates the decimal multiplier.

    Colour band D Indicates the tolerance in per cent about the indicated value. Tolerance represents the percentage accuracy of the indicated value.
