The largest resistor in the world is a custom-built, high-power resistor known as the "biggest resistor" at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in the United States. This resistor has a resistance value of 1 ohm and is designed to handle up to 1 megawatt of power. Its size and capability are crucial for precise electrical measurements in metrology. While the physical dimensions can vary, such high-power resistors are typically quite large and can weigh several tons.
