    Is this some kind of fuse resistor ?

    Hello guys

    Taking a look at some KNX domotic modules that were toasted due to some kind of electrical failure, I found out 2 weird looking resistors.

    Seem to me like some kind of fuse resistor?
    After diggin a bit seems like a fuse wirewound resistor wafer or whatever that is

    They are very toasted but I think the 5 band colours are RED GOLD BLACK ORANGE ORANGE or the opposite, not sure which is the first band.
    The red band is larger than the 4 others, but I dont have much experience with these components.

    Also one of the orange bands looks like brown due to burning, but on a clear part of it, Im pretty sure it was orange to start

    Some pics attached.

    I think its a 33 ohm fuse resistor wafer as on the second band there should not be a golden color.

    What you guys think?
    Should I try replacing these 2 components or not worth the shot?

    Appreciate any help!
    Best

    MELF packaged resistors i think - turn a light on next time

      To me looks like a couple MELF 0207 resistors with a solder bridge between them. Some Vishay have a brown body, others blue MMB series.

        Thank you both!
        Yes MELF 0207

        What about the color band.
        The red one being the thicker band means something? like last band or tolerance band?
        or the reverse?

          well the image is dark, but:
          orange,orange,black,gold,red ? maybe?

          so 330 and a divide x10 so 33 and finally red whitch would be 2% tolerance.

            Vishay 5-band color code
            yes 33Ω 2%
