text: Wire wound resistors can tolerate severe overloads for a short period, but I prefer to keep the absolute maximum to somewhat less than 250% – even for very brief periods, since they may become open circuit from the stress, rather than temperature (this does happen, and I have experienced it during tests and repairs).
