| - | When doing a repair job, it's nice to have a handy testing cheatsheet for a range of electronic components. So far I haven't found one, so I created my own here which covers everything from very basic fuses and resistors to MOSFETs, even Gas Arrestor Tubes. All using a multimeter and other tools. I've tried to cater for absolute beginners to intermediate hobbyists. | + | When doing a repair job, it's nice to have a handy testing cheatsheet for a range of electronic components.

| - | {{:component-cheatsheet:gas-surge-testing.png?direct |}}I include this because they look like a cross between a zener diode and the colour bands of a resistor. Little is written about them, but they can be located in some switch mode power supplies. | ||

| - | Connect the probe at both ends. | ||
