I-V curve. In a power source, like a battery or electric generator, positive current flows out of the positive voltage terminal, opposite to the direction of current in a resistor, so from the passive sign convention and have opposite signs, representing points lying in the 2nd or 4th quadrant of the I-V plane (diagram right). Thus power sources formally have negative static resistance ( However this
