Ans: The  resistor  is a passive electrical component to create resistance in the flow of electric current.. What is Resistor coding?   Ans:  The  Resistor Color Code  Calculator decodes and identifies a value and tolerance of 4 band wire wound resistors Resistor color code chart The chart below shows how to determine the resistance and tolerance for resistors. The table can also be used to specify the color of the bands when the values are known. An automatic resistor calculator can be used to quickly find the resistor values.   Types of
