Rheostat



Full Image
A rheostat is a device made of resistance wire and used to adjust the electrical resistance of a circuit without interrupting the flow of current. It is commonly used to demonstrate the function of dimmer switches and motor speeds. more details
Key Features:
  • Variable resistance: The main function of a rheostat is to provide variable resistance to a circuit, allowing for the adjustment of current flow.
  • Resistance wire: The resistance wire used in a rheostat is typically made of a high-resistance material, such as nichrome or tungsten, which can withstand high temperatures without melting.
  • Adjustable knob or slider: A rheostat typically has a knob or slider that can be moved to change the resistance, allowing for precise control over the current flow.

Description
A rheostat is a device made of resistance wire and used to adjust the electrical resistance of a circuit without interrupting the flow of current. It is commonly used to demonstrate the function of dimmer switches and motor speeds.

The rheostat is made from resistance wire wound on an insulating, heat-resistant tube. It is supported by cast-metal end cheeks and has a sliding contact. It allows you to adjust the electrical resistance of a circuit without intefering with the flow of current. It's used to demonstrate how dimmer switches and motor speeds work.
