How much a resistor impedes the current flow is called **resistance** and is measured in **ohms**. Most resistors have a fixed value as to how much resistance they will display. Wattage, qualities and tolerance values vary according to needs. | How much a resistor impedes the current flow is called **resistance** and is measured in **ohms**.
