I am searching for wiring details for using Aluminum Housed Wirewound Power
Resistors used for thermal control inside an insulated housing for the
seismic sensors. It has been suggested wiring several such resistors in series to
accomplish a 10-30 watts from the 110v AC house supply source. I'm a little
leery about the house current for safety reasons and possible AC hum.
In studying the Mouser Electronics catalog, I can find several possible
configurations using one to several resistors in series. The resistors specify
their wattage capability, but have different resistance values to choose from.
