MIL-PRF-39009E
1.2.1.1 Style. The style is to be identified by the three letter symbol "RER" followed by a two digit
number; the letters identify ER, chassis mounted, power type, wire wound, fixed resistors, and the number
identifies the sizes, and power rating of the resistors.
1.2.1.2 Resistance tolerance. The resistance tolerance is identified by a single letter in accordance with
table I.
TABLE I. Resistance tolerance.

1.2.1.3 Resistance. The nominal resistance is expressed in ohms and is identified by four digits; the
first three digits represent significant figures and the last digit specifies the number of zeros to follow.
When fractional values of an ohm, and values of less than 100 ohms are required, the letter "R" is
substituted for one of the significant digits to represent the decimal point. When the letter "R" is used,
succeeding digits become significant. The following are examples of symbols for resistance values:
R100
=
0.10 ohm
1R00
=
1.0 ohm
10R0
=
10.0 ohms
1000
=
100 ohms
1001
= 1,000 ohms
1002
= 10,000 ohms
Minimum and maximum resistance values are as specified (see 3.1). The standard resistance values for
every decade follows the sequence demonstrated for 10 decade to 100 decade as specified in table II.
