Help with power resistor markings & value?

Rectangular ceramic power resistor in a Braun handheld blender (120 vac) is
open.

Markings on resistor are:
206-8 R
R47 10% *

(That's 10 percent followed by a dot, in case the
symbol doesn't show up right on your computer...)

I did a Google on resistor markings and values, but got just traditional
color codes, etc. The markings on this resistor are Euro designations, I
presume.

What's the value of this resistor?

URL for future ref would be appreciated.

Thanks,

R47 is almost certainly 47 ohms. Don't know how many watts, but match the
physical size of it and you'll come close.

Most certainly 0.47 ohms.

47000000 -> 47M
47000 -> 47k
47 -> 47R
4.7 -> 4R7
0.47 -> R47

47R certainly would be 47 Ohms. In the Euro style the R indicates the
position of the decimal point, so R47 would more likely be 0.47 Ohms, in
my humble opinion...

The "R" is used sometimes as a decimal point (4R7 = 4.7 ohms) so R47
could be 0.47 ohms. Buy both, try first the one of 47 ohms.

You are correct, we use 0R47 on our own schematics to reinforce the point, but
R47 will be 0.47 ohms.

Thank you, Peter, and all others. I'm on my way to buy a 0.47-ohm, 5W
replacement.

Thanks again,

Made by Vitrohm/Yageo, look here for datasheet:

If that is the square ceramic cased types, they are a little bulky, but are
slightly higher rated in W than equivalent wirewounds. The standard Vitreous
enamelled 3W and 6W types are a close replacement as long as you don't need the
slightly higher dissipation. The also do a solderable spike for them to allow
vertical mounting with support, which can be useful to keep the heat off the
PCB.
