Slide wire resistor

Special tools called slide wire resistors help us change how the current flows through a circuit. Now think of a pipe that can expand and contract to allow either a larger or smaller flow of water. With electricity, slide wire resistors perform a similar function. They made of a long piece of wire that can be adjusted so that it allows different amounts of electricity to flow. It is typically composed of a blend of copper and nickel. It plays a crucial role in allowing the wire to endure both extremely high temperatures and high currents without causing damage. TS Heating Alloy Slide Resistance Wire for use in a vast electronics in various equipment, to protect other components from a great current and damage. 

Advantages and Limitations of Using Slide Wire Resistors

There are some advantages, and some disadvantages, with slide wire resistors. The great thing about conducting this sort of thing, it’s easy to change, it’s easy to do, and easy to optimise. That makes them ideal for situations where you need to regulate very precise amounts of resistance. For instance, you can use TS Heating Alloy slide resistors wired in series to ensure just the proper quantity of electricity passes through to a device. They also perform well at varying temperatures so that they remain reliable when it gets warm or cold outside. The downside to slide wire resistors is that they are bulky and occupy a lot of area in a circuit. This isn’t great when you need to free space in a project. Slide wire resistors are also more expensive than many other resonators, so people with a smaller budget might avoid them.
