It indicates how close the real resistance of the real resistor is guaranteed to be
to the numbers indicated by the first three bands.
Gold . . . within 5 percent higher or lower
Silver . . . within 10 percent higher or lower
No 4th band . . . within 20 percent higher or lower
The colour code of a 0.27 ohm resistor is red (2) violet (7) silver (0.01) ______123456______Example of a 4 band resistorNote that band 1,2,3 and 5 makes up the 4 in use 27x0.01=0.27 The fourth band (number 5) indicate how accurate this resistor is. In this example, Gold, indicates accuracy within 5% of indicated value. For more information regarding calculation, please have a look at related question below.
The fourth band indicates the tolerance. Silver is ±10%. Thus, (200 + 0.1*200) = 220 ohms. The minimum, then is (200 - 0.1*200) = 180 ohms. See link.
yep
1000 ohms = 1Kohm; silver is the tolerance band of the resistor. Silver signifies plus or minus 10%. The fourth band is always the tolerance band. If there is no tolerance band, the tolerance is plus or minus 20%. A gold band would signify plus or minus 5%.
Three red color bands indicate a resistor value of 2,200 ohms (2.2 kohms)
The first 3 band on a resistor indicate the value of that resistor.
Tolerance. (Here fourth band is multiplier.)

Hi You can find the value of the resistor by using colour code printed on the resistor. 1. Hold the resistor such that the colour code starts from left. 2. Each of the colour bands present on the resistor specifies a value. 3. The first colour band represents the first significant figure, the second band represents the second significant figure and the third band indicates the multiplier. The fourth band represents the tolerance. Gold band- 5%, Silver band-10%, No band-20% 4.Find the appropriate values for the colour by using the chart 1. 5. Find the value of the resistor by using the formula 1. Chart1 Example: Here first band represent brown. Second band represent black. Third band represent red . Fourth band represent gold. The value of resistor = 10 x 102 ± 5% = 1kΩ ± 5%
To identify the value of a carbon resistor using colour code use the following table...0 - Black1 - Brown2 - Red3 - Orange4 - Yellow5 - Green6 - Blue7 - Violet8 - Grey9 - White... and look at the bands. The first two bands will be the digits, and the third band will be the multiplier. For instance, Brown - Red - Orange will be 12000 ohms, where the 1 is the first band, the 2 is the second band, and the three 0's is the third band.If the third band is Gold or Silver, then the multiplier is 0.1 or 0.01 respectively. For instance, Brown - Red - Gold would be 1.2 ohms, and Brown - Red- Silver would be 0.12 ohms.If there is no fourth band, the resistor is +/- 20%. If the fourth band is Silver, the resistor is +/- 10% and, for Gold, +/- 5%.Some high end resistors have more bands. The 1% resistor will have a third digit band, and some resistors will have a band indicating temperature coefficient.
The first band on the left is the first significant figure.The second band is the second significant figure.The third band is the decimal multiplier.The fourth band, if present, indicates the tolerance in percent. If there is no band, the value means 20%.The resistor in the image above is red, red, yellow, silver or 3, 3, 4 zeros, 10% or 330K ohm 10%. Precision resistors or resistors with unique temperature properties can have as many as six bands:The first band on the left is the first significant figure.The second band is the second significant figure.The third band is the third significant figure. (optional if non-precision)The fourth band is the decimal multiplier.The fifth band indicates the tolerance in percent.The sixth band is the temperature coefficient code. (a special table is needed to interpret this band's color)
The fourth band indicates the tolerance. Silver is ±10%. Thus, (200 + 0.1*200) = 220 ohms. The minimum, then is (200 - 0.1*200) = 180 ohms. See link.
On a color coded resistor, there are normally four color bands. The first three represent the value of the resistor and the fourth represents the tolerance of the resistor, i.e. the acceptable variation as a percentage from the stated value. No fourth band allows +/- 20% Silver allows +/- 10% Gold allows +/- 5% Red allows +/- 2% Brown allows +/- 1%
It indicates how close the real resistance of the real resistor is guaranteed to be to the numbers indicated by the first three bands. Gold . . . within 5 percent higher or lower Silver . . . within 10 percent higher or lower No 4th band . . . within 20 percent higher or lower

1000 ohms = 1Kohm; silver is the tolerance band of the resistor. Silver signifies plus or minus 10%. The fourth band is always the tolerance band. If there is no tolerance band, the tolerance is plus or minus 20%. A gold band would signify plus or minus 5%.
yes
