Appendix C Snubber Testing

SCR Testing

The following procedure verifies SCR semiconductors and all associated snubber
components. For quick reference to the expected resistance and capacitance
values, refer to

Table 15

below. A simple schematic diagram in

Figure 256

shows

the snubber component connections across an SGCT.

Table 15 - SCR Snubber Circuit Resistance and Capacitance Values

If you find a damaged device or snubber component, follow the detailed
replacement procedure located in

Component Definition and Maintenance on
