The [[510]] decade units use an 11-position switch, with the first position shorting the decade, and the following positions increasing the resistance by one step. | The [[510]] decade units use an 11-position switch, with the first position shorting the decade, and the following positions increasing the resistance by one step. | ||
The switch has a make-before-break configuration, i.e. regardless of the position there is always continuity between the terminals. | The switch has a make-before-break configuration, i.e. regardless of the position there is always continuity between the terminals. | ||
