Hi everyone,
I'm having some unusual problems and appreciate any help! I am constructing a simple circuit using a breadboard with a battery pack as the power source, and 1 100 ohm resistor in order to test the board and practice some basic electronics skills. However, I'm noticing a .2 V drop when comparing the voltage across the power supply leads and across the resistor. What would be some things to troubleshoot in addressing this voltage drop? Some sources seem to suggest that this might be within the error margin for the device, but I'm hoping to diagnose the problem, since I expect that the voltage drop across the resistor and the battery pack to be the same. This is my first time constructing circuits beyond the classroom, so any real world tips anyone can offer will be greatly appreciated! :grin:
