How do you reduce 48 volts dc to 12 volts dc with resistors?

Yes. You can use a voltage divider. Say, for instance, one 1KOhm resistor in series with a 3KOhm resistor. Connect the 3k resistor to the 48 volts and connect the 1k resistor to ground. The 1k resistor will have 12 volts acress it. These resistors need to be at least 1 watt each as they are going to dissipate 0.576 watts and get warm. Now, if you attempt to pull power from the 1k resistor, note that regulation will be poor because the impedance of the load will go in parallel with the 1k resistor and change its value.


What is 1k resistor?

the k is the Metric value kilo, or ,1000 so this is a 1000 ohm resistor


What size resistor is needed to drop 24 volts dc to 12volts dc?

Its dependent what will by rated power of the device (current).


What is the voltage drop of a 1k ohm resistor?

It depends on the current going through it. Ohm's law: Voltage equals current times resistance.


What is the range of resistor in water level detector?

The range of resistor value typically used in water level detectors is between 1k ohm to 100k ohm. The specific resistor value depends on the sensitivity required for detecting the water level change. It's important to choose the resistor value that provides a balance between sensitivity and stability in the detector circuit.


What is a preset resister?

A preset resistor also known as a poteintometer is a type of resistor whos resistance is selected by the user. A preset maybe of any range i.e. from 1k to 100k or from 1M to 100M. a preset is used in many circuits where varyin resistance is required

Does voltage split equally in parallel?

The voltage going into each parallel node will be equal to the voltage of the node before it, as long as the resistance is the same. For example, if you have a current of 5 volts split between two 1k ohm resistors, each 1k ohm will have 5 volts before the resistor drops the voltage.
