(under the class definition) Subject matter wherein a plurality of resistor units are formed or constructed as a unitary structure with a groove, notch, mark, fragile or frangible part, as well as with an overall shape to facilitate separation into a plurality of individual resistor units as by breaking.
(1) Note. In this subclass the resistor units while in a unitary structure before severing or breaking into individual units are capable of functioning as a resistor or a plurality of resistors, and the individual units formed after the breaking step are also capable of functioning as a complete resistor.
(2) Note. This subclass only provides for resistors units readily separable into individual resistor units. The independent resistors formed from such units are classified according to their own characteristics.
