RESISTORS, FIXED, WIREWOUND (ACCURATE),
NONESTABLISHED RELIABILITY, ESTABLISHED RELIABILITY
GENERAL SPECIFICATION FOR
This specification is approved for use by all Departments
and Agencies of the Department of Defense.
1. SCOPE
1.1 Scope. This specification covers the general requirements for nonestablished reliability (non-ER),
established reliability (ER), accurate, wire-wound, fixed resistors that have a maximum resistance
tolerance of 1 percent and a high degree of stability with respect to time under specified environmental
conditions. The resistors are capable for continuous full-load (or voltage) operation at any ambient
temperature up to 125°C, and when derated, up to 145°C (see 6.5). They are not capable for application
where the alternating current (ac) characteristics are of critical importance. ER resistors have life failure
rates (FR) ranging from 1.0 percent to 0.001 percent per 1,000 hours (see 1.2.1.5). These FR are
established at 60-percent confidence level on the basis of the life tests. The FR, identified by the
appropriate symbol, is referred to operation at full rated voltage and temperature.
