(under subclass 283) Subject matter wherein the resistance element is flat in one dimension to lie substantially in one plane.
(1) Note. A resistance element having a flat surface is not necessarily classified in the subclass. For classification here the overall shape must be flat or planar.
SEE OR SEARCH THIS CLASS, SUBCLASS:
212, for flexible or folding resistors formed as a sheet.
254, for a resistor whose flattened element is embedded between flat layers.
279+, for resistors formed as bent ribbons. 287+, for a compound or multiple zigzag type resistor whose element has a planar shape.
293, for zigzag or sinuous resistors whose elements extend through openings or slots in a support or frame and are planar.
314, for a resistor whose element and base are formed in layers.
333, for resistors of a particular configuration not classified above.
