Covering Latest Innovations in the Power Engineering Industry
January 21, 2025 – For your convenience, everythingPE (Power Engineering) has
created a very nice online app for
identifying resistors by their color codes. The color bands
on a resistor are used to represent the resistance value, tolerance, and sometimes
the temperature coefficient of the resistor. These color bands follow a standardized
color code to help identify the resistor's characteristics. The number of color
bands on a resistor can vary, but most commonly, you will find resistors with either
four or five bands (and sometimes a sixth). Our calculator works with all three
varieties.
Band 1 & Band 2: Significant Figures - These bands represent the significant
digits of the resistance value. Each color corresponds to a specific number, typically
from 0 to 9. The first band represents the tens-place digit, and the second band
represents the ones-place digit.
Band 3: Multiplier Band - This band represents the multiplier that should be
applied to the significant figures to get the full resistance value. Each color
corresponds to a power of 10.
Band 4: The tolerance band indicates the allowable percentage deviation from
the nominal resistance value
Band 5: Some resistors, especially precision resistors, include a fifth band
to indicate the temperature coefficient. The temperature coefficient band tells
you how much the resistor's resistance changes with temperature.

Band 6: The sixth band, if present, provides information about the temperature
coefficient or, in some cases, the reliability or failure rate of the resistor.
About everythingPE
everything PE is a new website for the Power Electronics Industry. We keep engineers
up to date with the latest news, products, white papers, and upcoming events in
the Power Electronics Industry. The everything PE editorial team works hard to ensure
that every product release and relevant news story in the Power Electronics sector
is added to the site.
The products are ordered by relevance and launch date, so users get to see the
latest products that meet their requirements. They can then download the datasheet
of a product or request a quotation via everything PE. The quotations are directly
routed to the sales contract at the relevant company. In addition to this, it is
also, routed to distributors/sales representatives who will be able to quote this
product. Our proprietary algorithm sends the inquiry to the relevant distributors/sales
representatives based on the location of the user. So if an inquiry is generated
from California it will be sent to the manufacturer and their sales reps/distributors
for California. Or if an Inquiry is generated from India, will be sent to the manufacturer
and their distributor in India.
