Description
Ohmite 1200W Resistor Load Bank 4x 300W 5 Ohm Wire Wound P/N 1101888-100-242
This is a self-contained 1200-watt resistive load bank built around four Ohmite E300K5R0 wire-wound ceramic resistors, each rated at 300W and 5 ohms. The assembly is housed in a ventilated metal cage enclosure with a carry handle, rubber feet, and a fused front panel — originally configured as a portable load for testing specific equipment in a controlled environment. The cable harness attached to the unit uses AMP 200532-2 high-density gold-pin connectors and a military-style circular connector; buyers will need to adapt or replace this cabling to suit their own application.

Applications
Resistive load banks like this one are used to apply a controlled electrical load to a power source — such as a power supply, generator, battery system, or UPS — for testing, burn-in, or calibration purposes. With four 5-ohm, 300W wire-wound resistors totaling 1200W of dissipation capacity, this unit can serve as a heavy-duty dummy load for a range of industrial and laboratory test applications. Wire-wound ceramic resistors of the Ohmite type used here are a long-standing industry standard for high-power load testing, valued for their thermal stability and ability to handle sustained power dissipation. The existing cable harness with AMP 200532-2 connectors suggests this unit was originally part of a specialized aerospace, defense, or automated test equipment (ATE) setup; the harness can be removed or replaced with standard terminations to adapt it for general-purpose use. Load banks of this configuration are commonly used in power supply validation, generator acceptance testing, battery discharge testing, and electronic equipment burn-in.
This Ohmite 1200W Resistor Load Bank (P/N 1101888-100-242) has not been powered or tested at our facility, but was pulled from a working environment where it was previously used for equipment load testing. The unit has been visually inspected and appears to be in good used condition. The ventilated metal cage enclosure, four Ohmite E300K5R0 wire-wound resistors, fuse panel, and cable harness are all present. The cable harness (P/N 523260-1-2 Rev. A) uses AMP 200532-2 high-density connectors and a military-style circular connector that were specific to the original test application — buyers will likely need to adapt or replace the cabling to suit their own setup. Some surface discoloration and light wear consistent with prior use is visible on the enclosure. Please view our photo set and contact us if you have any questions.
