You have determined that a 4700-ohm, 1/2-watt resistor on an electronic circuit board is defective. Assuming room permits, can the resistor be replaced with a 4700-ohm, 1-watt resistor without damage to the rest of the board, or will the higher wattage resistor generate excessive heat that could damage other components?
