DESIGN & CONSTRUCTION:
The Line Feed Resistor is a tight tolerance, stable resistor which has the additional capability to withstand both in rush currents
and certain lightning pulse surges but would fuse safely when exposed to overload conditions such as the 600 volt power cross
specified in GR-1089.
