Need help locating a resistor

Yukonsc · 16th November 2005, 06:11 AM

I am looking for a Noble Cemented Wire Wound Resistor RGC5T - 5w/.33ohms. (single element). (or compatable)

I am repairing an Adcom 565 amp.

Thanks in advance for your help - I am new at the electronics game.

Go to www.Digikey.com and enter the following in the parts search window (enter it exactly as shown below):

resistor wirewound 5W .33 ohm

This gives me 25 results.... They should all work, BUT I'm not exactly sure what your resistor looks like. There are different kinds of cases they can come in... I'm not sure exactly the one you need.

Its a more of a radial mount. Like the picture below. I looked at digi-key and the only radial mount is a special order. Can I use a axial mount with the same values? It looks like the exact replacment part can't be found through a traditional distributor.

Mouser has some Xicon radial cement resistors. 5W, but it looks like only .3 in the radial. The 7w Xicon's are being used in the My Ref C that Twisted Pear Audio has available in the Chip Amps section and they seem to work just fine.

Thanks for your help - I'll try one of those. Wish me luck
