Adjustable electronic load in solar-cell-array test instrument uses ten power MOSFET's and eight resistors. Two gate-control voltages adjusting load are derived from single, manually-operated, ganged potentiometer control. Third adjustable resistor adjusts relative turn-on points of two groups of transistors.
