Voltage rating?

------Question for ROX5SSJ130R Please Put your question below------

What’s the voltage rating on this 130ohm 5watt resistor?

Hello @bnanaproductions,

There are several different ways to answer this question:

  • Max Overload: 800 V according to the datasheet
  • Max Working Voltage: 500 V
  • Continuous: 18 V assuming a 50% derating

The resistor will withstand relatively high pulse voltages. However, “pulse” exists on a continuum with long pulses looking more like a DC voltage. Recommend a conservative approach until you have a better feel for the device in real world operating conditions.

Sincerely,
