One. Measure the load resistance. Divide by five. Use that as the added series resistance. (For 1000 ohm load, add 200 ohms in series.)

Note that this answer may be wrong for situations where the load resistance changes or the current is high, as you must consider source to load rejection ratio and power consumed by the added resistor.

Another way is to to get a stabilised plug top power unit . Open it up and use the electronic regulator from it. Wire your 6 volts DC in place of the transformer secondary and use output as normal. The integrated three terminal regulator you are looking for is called a 7805 industry standard 1 amp regulator.

ANSWER: Must know the load current first then add a series resistor to drop 1 volts with the current flow.

What is the operation in using kelvin bridge?

A Kelvin bridge (as well called a Kelvin double bridge and in some countries a Thomson bridge) is a measuring instrument used to measure unknown electrical resistors below 1 ohm. It is specifically designed to measure resistors that are built as four terminal resistors.

How do you wire four 12 volt leisure batteries together to run 12 volt for my inverter?

To maintain the 12 volts using four batteries they have to be wired in parallel connections. This means that all of the positive posts are connected together and all of the negative posts are connected together. The total sum of all of the batteries will equal 12 volts.

How does the effective resistance of four resistors in parallel compared to the individual resistance?

It depends on the values of the individual resistors. But if each resistor is identical, then the total resistance will be one-quarter that of an individual resistor.
