Change the resistor value in the PS scheme

Hi
Just want to know how much is important to use 4 of 0.47 ohm 3W in the power supply.
I have 5 resistor of 1 ohm 5W, its ok to put them??
thanks

yes. that will be fine.

If you have (5) resistors 1.0ohm 5W, per rail, for a total of 10 in the PSU, that will work very well. 🙂

thanks, i put 6 1.0ohm 5W for each rail.

i measure 1-3 mVOLT!! its ok?? with no load !
5 cap 10000uf for each rail

With load, you should see about one sixth of
a volt drop across the resistors per amp load.
What you are seeing now seems fine.
