  • Question
  • What is the color code for a 220 Ω 5% resistor?


  • Options
  • A. Red, Red, Brown, Gold
  • B. Orange, Orange, Black, Gold
  • C. Red, Red, Black, Gold
  • D. Red, Red, Brown, Silver

  • Correct Answer
  • Red, Red, Brown, Gold 

    Explanation
    Resistor colour coding series:
    
    Black   0 
    Brown   1 
    Red     2 
    Orange  3 
    Yellow  4 
    Green   5 
    Blue    6 
    Violet  7  
    Gray    8   
    White   9 
    None    20% 
    Silver  10% 
    Gold    5% 
    
    Therefore Red, Red, Brown, Gold 
               2    2    101    5% 
    
     = 22 x 10 = 220 ohm 5% (tolerance).
