Measure the dc resistance with a multimeter if its that much different than its code then its an inductor for sure. A lr series circuit consists basically of an inductor of inductance l connected in series with a resistor of resistance r. A Resistance Opposes The Current In A Circuit But A Resistor Capacitor Inductor Circuit Board With Capacitors Inductors Resistors And Resistor capacitor and inductor in the following we adopt the convention that a constant or direct current dc or voltage is represented by an upper case letter or while a time varying or alternating current ac current or voltage is represented by a lower case letter or sometimes simply and. Inductor or resistor . The voltage across the resistor is in phase 00 shift with the current through it and the voltage across the inductor is 900 out of phase with the current going through it. The resist...
