A 1-K pot, or a 1 kΩ potentiometer, is a variable resistor with a resistance value of 1 kilo-ohm (1,000 ohms). Potentiometers are commonly used in electronic circuits to adjust levels of voltage, resistance, or signal strength. They typically have three terminals: two outer terminals connected to a voltage source and one wiper (middle terminal) that moves across a resistive track to adjust the output voltage or resistance.
