High Current Round Edgewound
These high current round edgewound resistors han-
dle a variety of applications including dynamic brak-
ing, load banks, motor starting, and plugging. They
are available in a variety of ohm and current ratings
common to transit use.
A sturdy welded steel frame supports the refrac-
tory insulators. The frame is finished with a zinc
chromate conversion for corrosion resistance. The
ceramic insulators separate turns of the resistance
elements from each other and the frame. The resis-
tance element is a stainless steel strip, used for
its corrosion resistance, negligible temperature
coefficient, and Ohms per foot vs. current carrying
capacity. The resistance element is created by edge-
winding a stainless strip into a continuous coil of the
proper length. Zinc plated terminals welded to the
resistance element complete the assembly.
