About this product
Axial power resistor rated at 5.6Ω and 2W. Being a low-value resistor, it lets higher currents flow, so it suits current-limiting and load testing. Power resistors also handle more heat than standard low-wattage resistors, which matters in power supplies and test setups.

How do I check if this resistor can handle my circuit?
Calculate the power across it with P = I² × R or P = V² ÷ R and keep it well below 2 W. At the full 2 W rating, the maximum current is about 0.6 A and the maximum voltage is about 3.3 V (V = √(P × R)). The power rating does not set the voltage limit, so check the datasheet for the maximum working voltage.
Can I use it instead of a lower-wattage resistor of the same value, and does polarity matter?
Yes, a higher power rating works with the same resistance, but the body is larger, so check the spacing on your PCB or breadboard. Resistors are non-polarized, so either lead can go to either side of the circuit.
