KOA Speer WSBS8518 Thick Film Power Resistor 0.01Ω 8W from Japan
KOA Speer WSBS8518 surface-mount thick film shunt resistor measuring 0.01Ω at 8W for current sensing in power supplies and motor drives. Falls under HTS 8533.21.00.90 as thick film fixed resistor ≤20W used for precision measurement rather than heating. Critical for battery management systems and EV applications.

Import Tips
• Low resistance values (<1Ω) common for shunts; document current sensing function
• High precision (0.5-1% tolerance) distinguishes from general purpose types
• Kelvin 4-terminal construction requires spec sheet for customs verification
