rab
"Rab" o "Rba" (resistencia balastro de alarma)


Explanation:
Por el contexto, opino que también sería posible que "Rab" (normalmente "a" y "b" en subíndice) hiciese referencia a una "alarm ballast resistor" como las usadas en algunos sistemas de alarma contra incendio.

Ejemplo:
[...]an alarm ballast resistor Rab may be required to prevent LHDC operation registering as a short circuit fault[...] (http://linear-heat-detectors.com/storage_tank.htm)
