DEFINITION
Classification: 338/324
(under subclass 322) Subject matter wherein the resistor terminals are significantly different, as by each terminal with the associated resistance element being classifiable in different subclasses under subclass 322.
(1) Note. The different must be in the terminal structure itself or in the relationship between the terminal and the resistance element. A significant difference in the detachable connections on respective terminals, each with the necessary resistance structure being classifiable in subclass 322 below, is sufficient for classification in this subclass 324, the detachable connector being a part of the terminal. A significant difference exists when included in the claims. The inclusion of two significantly different detachable connectors on one terminal is not sufficient for classification in this subclass (324). For classification here the significantly different connectors must be on different resistance terminals.
