A 2.26 kΩ, 1%-precision resistor with 5 color bands (), from top, 2-2-6-1-1; the last two brown bands indicate the multiplier (×10) and the tolerance (1%).. An electronic color code or electronic colour code (see spelling differences) is used to indicate the values or ratings of electronic components, usually for resistors, but also for capacitors, inductors, diodes and others.
A mnemonic which includes color name (s) generally reduces the chances of confusing black and brown. Some mnemonics that are easy to remember: B eetle B ailey R uns O ver Y our G eneral B efore V ery G ood W itnesses. B each B ums R arely O ffer Y ou G atorade B ut V ery G ood W ater.

A resistor is a passive two-terminal electrical component that implements electrical resistance as a circuit element. In electronic circuits, resistors are used to reduce current flow, adjust signal levels, to divide voltages, bias active elements, and terminate transmission lines, among other uses. High-power resistors that can dissipate many ...
The electrical resistance of an object is a measure of its opposition to the flow of electric current. Its reciprocal quantity is electrical conductance, measuring the ease with which an electric current passes. Electrical resistance shares some conceptual parallels with mechanical friction. The SI unit of electrical resistance is the ohm ( Ω ...
A common type of axial-leaded resistor today is the metal-film resistor. Metal Electrode Leadless Face ( MELF) resistors often use the same technology. Metal film resistors are usually coated with nickel chromium (NiCr), but might be coated with any of the cermet materials listed above for thin film resistors.
The RKM code, also referred to as "letter and numeral code for resistance and capacitance values and tolerances", "letter and digit code for resistance and capacitance values and tolerances", or informally as "R notation" is a notation to specify resistor and capacitor values defined in the international standard IEC 60062 (formerly IEC 62) since 1952.
An axial-lead through-hole zero-ohm resistor is generally marked with a single black band, the symbol for "0" in the resistor color code. Surface-mount zero-ohm resistors are usually marked with a single or multiple "0" (if size allows marking), where the number of digits can indicate the tolerance or maximum resistance rating, as is the case ...
I am rusty on this, but the photo indicates that the resistor is: 'A 2260 Ω, 1%-precision resistor with 5 color bands (E96 series), from top, 2-2-6-1-1; the last two brown bands indicate the multiplier (×10) and the tolerance (1%).' My color chart (I am cheating and using an App) says that is Band 1: 2, Band 2: 2, Band 3: 6.
