Rheostat Circuits Kit
Product Code : LSK-PL-10319
Rheostat Circuits Kit (SKU LSK-PL-10319) is the rheostat component of the Circuits Kit, supplied as a spare: a variable resistor mounted on a sturdy panel so students can control the current in a circuit and see its effect. It is used in school electricity practicals built with panel-mounted components. Science Lab Supplies manufactures the Circuits Kit spares at its factory at Plot 448, HSIIDC Industrial Area, Saha, Ambala, India, and quotes schools, colleges, tender contractors and distributors directly.
Specifications
Like the other Circuits Kit parts, the rheostat is mounted on a sturdy panel, which makes it easy to handle, to lay out alongside the other panels and to store after the lesson. It is sold as a spare, so a kit can be completed or a worn part replaced.

Applications and Experiments for the Rheostat Circuits Kit
A rheostat changes the resistance in a circuit, so students can vary the current and watch a lamp dim or brighten, or take a series of meter readings from one set-up. In a panel-based kit it sits beside the cell and bulb holders to make these practicals quick to assemble.
- NCERT Class 10 science (Electricity): using a rheostat to vary current when verifying Ohm's law.
- Middle-school circuit activities: dimming a lamp by changing resistance.
- Class 12 practicals: current control in simple measurement circuits.
Standard Scope of Supply
The Rheostat Circuits Kit is supplied as a single panel-mounted rheostat, as described above, for use with the Circuits Kit. Other kit panels, cells and leads are separate items. The resistance value is stated on the quotation; ask for it if your practical needs a particular range.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Spares can be quoted one at a time or in batches to refit several kits. Each quotation lists packing, delivery time and price for the quantity requested, and other Circuits Kit spares or school physics lab equipment in India can appear on it.
Science Lab Supplies holds an Importer-Exporter Code as a registered exporter and can ship to buyers in Kenya, Ghana, Ethiopia, Tanzania, Uganda and the UAE. Ask for a quotation from the contact page or the enquiry cart, and use the lab tender page for tender lists.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a complete circuits kit?
No. Despite the name, this item is a spare component for the Circuits Kit: a rheostat mounted on its own panel. The cell holder, bulb holder and other panels are listed as separate spares.
What does the rheostat do in a student circuit?
It lets students change the resistance, and therefore the current, without rebuilding the circuit. This is how they dim a lamp or take several current and voltage readings in one practical.
Is Science Lab Supplies the manufacturer or a trader?
The Circuits Kit spares are manufactured by Science Lab Supplies itself, in its factory at Saha, Ambala, India. Quotations are sent from the factory, so there is no trader in between.
What resistance does the rheostat have?
The resistance range is not given in this listing. Send your kit details through the contact page and the value will be confirmed on the quotation before you order.
