Resistor Color Code Guide - Identify Resistance Value & Tolerance #294058 (License: Personal Use)

The image displays a standard axial-lead carbon film resistor with four color bands: red, blue, red, and gold. These bands encode the resistance value (26 × 10² Ω = 2.6 kΩ) and tolerance (±5%). Such resistors are widely used in low-power electronic circuits for current limiting, voltage division, and biasing.

Used in electronics education, repair manuals, datasheets, and component identification guides; matches user intent to decode or verify resistor values during circuit design or troubleshooting.
