Frequently asked questions
What is the price of 5.6KΩ 1W Resistor – 5.6 kiloohm 1 Watt in Egypt?
5.6KΩ 1W Resistor – 5.6 kiloohm 1 Watt currently costs between 0.5 and 0.75 EGP across 2 offers in Egypt.
Where can I buy 5.6KΩ 1W Resistor – 5.6 kiloohm 1 Watt in Egypt?
5.6KΩ 1W Resistor – 5.6 kiloohm 1 Watt is available from Makers Electronics and Microohm. Compare the offers above to find the best price.
Can I replace a 1/4 W resistor of the same value with this 1 W part?
Yes. The resistance is identical, and a higher power rating only means the part can dissipate more heat safely. Check that the larger body fits your breadboard or PCB layout.
What is the maximum current through this resistor?
At its full 1 W rating, current is I = √(P/R), which gives about 13 mA for this 5.6 kiloohm resistor. Running it below its rated power leaves a safety margin.
