Snubber Resistance (SCR Device)
Access to the snubber resistor is not required to test the resistance. The snubber
circuit test point is located within the PowerCage under the heat sinks. For each
device, there is one test point. To verify the resistance, measure the resistance
between the test point and the heat sink above.
Figure 42 - Snubber resistance test
Refer to
Table 2 on page 52
to determine the appropriate snubber resistance value
for the current rating of the SCR used.
If the resistor is found to be out of tolerance, refer to publication
