Vitrohm had its origins in 1933 in a small industrial unit founded in Copenhagen, Denmark by two radio technology pioneers, becoming the largest specialist in electronic components – – on the European market.

What happens when a resistor burns up?
When a resistor has been overloaded with voltage exceeding its power rating, the resistor will become very hot to touch, darken considerably and possibly even melt or catch on fire.

One cause of failure in many applications is temporary exposure to unexpectedly high current peak, or short but severe overload (STOL). That’s why it is crucial to choose the right resistor for your application.

To make mass manufacturing of resistors easier, the IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) defined tolerance and resistance values for resistors in 1952.
These are referred to as preferred values or E-series, published in standard IEC 60063:1963.

Resistor Color Coding uses colored bands to quickly identify a resistors resistive value and its percentage of tolerance with the physical size of the resistor indicating its wattage rating.

The CRP series, a wirewound pulse resistor that is able to withstand short duration impulse events up to rated limits, uses the color coding system. The main advantage is that the color rings can be seen and read easily regardless of the position or orientation of the resistor on the circuit board.
