(2010? Fengtai District, the second model) a science and technology group of students designed and produced a multi-position electric heater model, in order to analyze the resistance of the access circuit on the electric heat (1) only close S1, R1 and R2 series, equivalent circuit diagram shown in Figure 1; only close S2, R2 and R3 series, equivalent circuit diagram shown in Figure 2.
