About this product
A 1 Ω power resistor rated at 5 W, intended for low-value, higher-power applications such as current limiting, load testing and dummy loads. It is designed to dissipate significant power, so the circuit must keep actual dissipation below its 5 W rating.

Frequently asked questions
What is the price of Power Resistor 1Ω 5W in Egypt?
Power Resistor 1Ω 5W currently costs 5 EGP in Egypt.
Where can I buy Power Resistor 1Ω 5W in Egypt?
Power Resistor 1Ω 5W is available from Microohm. Compare the offers above to find the best price.
Do I need a heatsink for this resistor?
The 5 W rating assumes adequate heat dissipation. Leave space around the resistor or mount it on a heatsink when it runs near its full power.
How do I choose the right power rating?
Calculate dissipation with P = I²R. For example, 2 A through 1 Ω dissipates 4 W, so this 5 W resistor is suitable with a margin. Keep the actual dissipation well below the rated value.
