The resistance across a set of closed contacts, measured in ohms.
Electrical resistance of a pair of engaged contacts. Resistance may be measured in ohms or milivolt drop at a specified current over the engaged contacts.
The amount of resistance generated between two electrical contacts.
The resistance in ohms between two objects in contact with each other.
Measurement of electrical resistance of mated contacts when assembled in a connector under typical service use. Electrical resistance is determined by measuring from the rear of the electrical area of one contact to the rear of the electrical area of one contact to the rear of the contact area of the mating contact (excluding both crimps) while carrying a specified test current.
The maximum permitted electrical resistance of pin and socket contacts when assembled in a connector under typical service use.
The resistance in ohms or milliohms across closed contacts. Also see Path Resistance.
The resistance offers to a flow of current during its passage between electrical contacts. For practical reasons, lead and terminal resistance may be included in the actual measurement, as well as the contact resistance proper. Also: The electrical resistance of a pair of closed contacts, measured between switch terminals.
The resistance between metallic contacts and the semiconductor.
The term contact resistance refers to the contribution to the total resistance of a material which comes from the electrical leads and connections as opposed to the intrinsic resistance, which is an inherent property, independent of the measurement method. Placing the test probes of an ohmmeter onto the leads of an 100 ohm resistor, a scientist might observe a total resistance of 1 megaohm, 1 kilohm or 101 ohms, depending on exactly how the connection is made. The contact resistance is then the difference between the measured resistance and 100 ohms.
