Steps to find out the resistance or capacitance values:<ref>Maini, A. K. (2008), ''Electronics and Communications Simplified'', 9th ed., Khanna Publications. {{ISBN|817409217X}}</ref>

# First two letters gives the power dissipation capacity.
# Next three digits gives the resistance value.
## First two digits are the significant values
## Third digit is the multiplier.
# Final digit gives the tolerance.

If a resistor is coded:
* EB1041: power dissipation capacity = 1/2 watts, resistance value = {{val|10|e=4}}±10% = between {{val|9|e=4}} ohms and {{val|11|e=4}} ohms.
* CB3932: power dissipation capacity = 1/4 watts, resistance value = {{val|39|e=3}}±20% = between {{val|31.2|e=3}} and {{val|46.8|e=3}} ohms.
