[Problem] To provide a load resistor: which has arranged therein a plurality of resistant rods that generate heat only to about 100° C. or less due to power supply from an emergency power generator, for example, and that rapidly lose the heat by mere exposure to the air; and which, therefore, does not need a cooling device to be installed for forcibly cooling the resistant rods, or a cooling fan that would be extremely heavy, have a large capacity, and end up accounting for about half of the ;eight and about the lower half of the volume constituting the load resistor. [Solution] The present invention is a load resistor that receives power transmitted from an apparatus and performs an energization test on the apparatus. The load resistor is characterized by comprising a rod-shaped resistive base body that is energized with the power and generates heat, a pipe-shaped protective member through which the rod-shaped resistive base body penetrates, and rod-shaped resistors having an insulation member that are packed in between the rod-shaped resistive base body and the protective member, the rod-shaped resistive base body having used therein a stretched nichrome wire that is wound in the shape of a coil.

A noise-preventing resistor has a structure in which a resistance wire is wound around an outer circumferential surface of a core, cap terminals are attached to either end part of the core, and part of an insulative coating (resin coating) covering the resistance wire and part of the resistance wire positioned underneath the insulative coating are cut, forming peeled regions exposing the resistance wire. As a result, conduction between the cap terminals and the resistance wire in the noise-preventing resistor is ensured.

Disclosed is a device for introducing loudspeaker harmonic nonlinearities to a signal without outputting the signal as audio or sound through a loudspeaker and recording the output audio or sound. The device includes a resistive element and an inductive element. The resistive element includes a hollow core and a first wire wound around the hollow core in a first direction. The inductive element is inserted within the hollow core of the resistive element, and includes a metal-based core and a second wire wound around the metal-based core in an opposite second direction. A signal or current is first passed through the inductive element, creating electromagnetic distortion between the resistive element and the inductive element that simulates inductance of the loudspeaker voice-coil. The electromagnetic distortion alters the signal by introducing harmonic nonlinearities into the signal.
