Resistance Box Decade Type (Single Dial) Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : EL-SLE-4701
Jlab Export is a leading Resistance Box Decade Type (Single Dial) Manufacturer,and suppliers in India
Resistance Box Decade Type (Single Dial) (code EL-SLE-4701) is a decade resistance box with one dial: the user turns a knob to switch in discrete resistance values instead of pulling plugs, which makes it quick to change the resistance in physics circuits. It is offered in 0–1, 0–10, 0–100 and 0–1000 ohm ranges. It is made by Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd (JLab) at its works in Ambala, India.

How Does It Compare with Other JLab Dial and Decade Boxes?
| Model | Dials | Listed details |
|---|---|---|
| This box (EL-SLE-4701) | Single dial | 0–1, 0–10, 0–100 or 0–1000 ohm range; knob selects discrete values |
| Decade Resistance Box | One to four dials | Low-contact-resistance band switch on a Bakelite panel in a wooden case |
| Dial Type Resistance Box | Dial type | Non-inductive wound constantan coils in series; Bakelite panel engraved with the resistance values; metal box |
| Economical Resistance Box Dial Type | Two, three or four dials | Metal film resistance elements; for AC or DC use |
| Resistance Box Plug Type (Superior Type) | None (plugs) | 100, 500 or 1000 ohms; resistors calibrated to ±0.1% |
Choose the single-dial box when one decade of adjustment is enough for the experiment and students should change values with a knob. For a wider span, look at the multi-dial boxes; for a box whose listing states its calibration accuracy, the superior plug type is the option.
What Is the Single-Dial Decade Resistance Box Used For?
A decade box gives a known resistance that can be changed in steps without rewiring the circuit. In school physics it sets the resistance in series with a cell and ammeter for Ohm’s law readings, and in class 12 and college labs it serves as the adjustable resistance in galvanometer, bridge and potentiometer circuits. Pick the range to suit the circuit: the 0–1 and 0–10 ohm boxes for low-resistance work and the 0–100 or 0–1000 ohm boxes where larger values are needed.
Turn the knob with the current switched off or very low, and let it settle firmly on a position rather than stopping between two, so the reading is not disturbed by a poor contact. Keep the box dry and away from heat sources between practicals.
What to Specify When Ordering
- Range — 0–1, 0–10, 0–100 or 0–1000 ohms, and the number of boxes of each.
- Number of dials — this single-dial box, or a multi-dial decade box if one decade is not enough.
- Quantity — minimum 10 units.
- Meters and leads — ammeter, galvanometer and connecting leads can be quoted with it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which ranges does the single-dial decade box come in?
Four ranges are listed: 0–1, 0–10, 0–100 and 0–1000 ohms. Each box has a single dial, so order the range or ranges your experiments need.
How do you set a resistance on it?
Turn the knob; the dial switches in resistors of different values and gives discrete steps. The listing does not give the step size, so ask JLab to confirm it for the range you choose.
How is a decade box different from a plug-type resistance box?
A decade box is set with a rotary knob, while a plug-type box is set by removing plugs. The decade box is quicker to adjust; the plug-type superior box is the one whose listing states ±0.1% calibration.
Is a wider range available?
Yes, as separate items. JLab lists decade and dial-type boxes with two, three or four dials, linked in the comparison above.
Who makes this decade resistance box?
It is made by Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd (JLab) at its works in Ambala, Haryana, India.
OEM Manufacturer
Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd trades as JLab and manufactures physics lab equipment and other educational apparatus in India. Incorporated in 2017, it is based on Hargolal Road, Ambala, Haryana, and builds its decade boxes in its own works, so buyers — schools, colleges, dealers and importers — get them factory-direct rather than through a trader. Every box is visually inspected before dispatch, and repeat orders are made by the same manufacturer. JLab exports worldwide and ships to buyers in every region, including for example Mali in West Africa, Australia in Oceania, Eswatini in Southern Africa, Japan in East Asia and Uzbekistan in Central Asia.
Meters and Accessories for the Circuit
- Ammeter — a desk-stand meter for the current reading in Ohm’s law work.
- Galvanometer — a sensitive current detector for bridge and potentiometer circuits.
- Rheostats (Continuous Constantan Type) — for continuous rather than stepped adjustment.
- Connecting Leads — plastic-covered leads with connectors.
