.~ Movable contact electrically adjustable over length of resistance element {21}
121
.~.~ With nonlinearity correction
DEFINITION
Classification: 338/121
(under subclass 118) Subject matter including structure which insures the same change in resistance value across the terminals with a given change or movement of the resistor actuator throughout the full operating range of the resistor, i.e., a straight line relationship exists between the value of the resistance across the terminals and the movement of the resistor actuator.

89+, for mechanically variable resistors wherein a definite mathematical relationship exists between the value of the resistance across the terminals and movement of the resistor actuator.
120, for a resistor with a contact electrically adjustable over the length of theelement, together with an additional resistor which shunts the element at adjustably spaced points, which may connect for nonlinearities.
135, for a variable resistor of the movable contact type having a zero setting or phasing means.
138+, for tapered resistors of the mechanically variable type. 195, for resistors varied by removing or adding material which may give a linear effect.
202, for movable contact structure.
