The resistance value of a carbon resistor having red, violet, orange and gold colour band is
27 kΩ ± 5%
CONCEPT:
- Resistances are available in small as well as in large values.
- The resistors are generally painted by a specific colour and a specific code is assigned to them. This is called colour coding of the resistance.
- The resistance value, tolerance, and wattage rating are generally printed on the body of the resistor as numbers or letters.
Colour Coding of Resistance: To know the value of resistance colour code is used
- Colour band A and B: Indicate the first two significant figures of resistance in ohms.
- Band C: Indicates the decimal multiplier i.e. the number of zeros that follows the two significant figures.
- Band D: Indicates the tolerance in percentage about the indicated value or in other words, it represents the percentage accuracy of the indicated value.
- The tolerance in the case of gold is �5% and in silver is �10%. If only three bands are marked on carbon resistance, then it indicates a tolerance of 20%.
