Resistor 22 Ohm 5W (1 pcs)

The Resistor 22 Ohm 5W is a fixed power resistor with a resistance of 22 Ω and a power rating of 5 W, sold as a single piece. Its higher wattage lets it handle currents that would burn out a standard small resistor, so it is used for current limiting, discharging capacitors, load testing and power supply circuits.

Resistor 22 Ohm 5W Specifications

• Resistance: 22 Ω
• Power rating: 5 W
• Type: fixed power resistor, no polarity
• Maximum current at 5 W: about 0.48 A
• Maximum voltage at 5 W: about 10.5 V across the resistor
• Quantity: 1 piece

Resistor 22 Ohm 5W Applications

• Current limiting and inrush limiting in power circuits
• Dummy loads for testing power supplies and chargers
• Discharging large capacitors safely
• Snubber and bleeder resistors
• Motor, heater and LED driver circuits

What's in the Box

• 1 × 22 Ω 5 W resistor

Tip: A power resistor gets hot when used near its rating, so leave space around it, keep it away from plastic parts and run it at about half its rating (2.5 W) for long life. Check the power with P = I² × R before use.
