value: under excessive voltage
type: OTHER
Source sentences:
text: They are designed to keep a constant value when in use and produce heat instead of light when used inside an electrical component.
text: Resistors pay a price for limiting current - they create heat.
text: When a resistor is in any circuit with current running though it, it will generate heat.
text: Just like friction generate heat, resistance generates heat too.
text: When a resistor is placed under a voltage that approaches the upper limits of its power rating, the resistor generates more heat than normal.
text: Under excessive voltage, a resistor generates so much heat that it cannot dissipate the heat quickly enough to prevent burning.
text: Huxley electrical model of nerves implies resistors are directional, and absorb rather than produce heat upon current reversal!).
