resistance-wire sensor meaning
[Electronics]
A specific length of resistance wire, properly mounted, whose resistance is proportional to a sensed phenomenon (such as strain, temperature, presence of gas, pressure, etc.). See, for example, ELECTRICAL STRAIN GAUGE, GAS DETECTOR, and PRESSURE TRANSDUCER.
