The Global Specialties Model RC-10 is a high quality Resistor and Capacitor Substitution Box. The RC-10 provides a convenient selection of standard resistor and capacitor values available either separately or in series or parallel RC combinations. The unit includes 36 resistors ranging in value from 15 Ohms to mega ohms, and 18 capacitors from 100 Pico farads to 0.22 micro farads. Both resistors and capacitors have a 10 percent tolerance and resistors have a power rating of one watt. The capacitors have a voltage rating of approximately 600 volts. Typical applications for the RC-10 include component substitution in servicing and circuit design applications, and establishing RC circuits for checking impedance, reactance, and frequency characteristics. The unit is also useful for classroom applications to demonstrate Ohm's Law, capacitive reactance, and other circuit effects caused by introducing various resistance and capacitance combinations. The RC-10 comes with plug-in test leads with convenient alligator clip connectors. Resistance: All resistors in the RC-10 are rated at 1 Watt. Do not exceed this power level. The resistance selector or "R" switch has 18 positions with a HI/LO selector switch for each position, providing a total of 36 resistance values. The resistor values on the "R" selector switch with no letter following are expressed in Ohms. For example, the value marked "100" indicates 100 Ohms. Capacitance: The capacitors in the RC-10 have a voltage rating of 600 volts. Do not exceed this rating. The RC Circuit Box provides a selection of 18 capacitance values. Note the capacitance values on the right side of the "C" switch are in microfarads, corresponding to 0.000001 farad. Values on the left side of the switch are in picofarads (pf),corresponding to 0.000001 microfarads.
