RC Subber component values
« on: July 26, 2020, 12:12:03 am »
Hi,
I am using these triacs (the smaller opto-triac driving the large triac):

To switch a load of 250Vac into very large capacitors (3,000 uF) and peak currents of up to 13A.

The more I have been reading up about choosing snubbers values the more confusing it was getting. How do I select the following?

- Resistor's value (range?) ?
- Resistor's power
- Capacitor's value
- Capacitor's type (film etc). Does it need to be X or Y type?

Many thanks :)
