Testing Snubber Resistors

You do not require access to the snubber resistor to test its resistance. There is a
snubber circuit test point located under the heatsink within the PowerCage.
There is one test point for each device. To verify the resistance, follow the
procedures outlined in the PowerFlex 7000 Commissioning Manual.

Replacing Snubber and Sharing Resistor

The snubber and sharing resistors are part of the resistor assembly located behind
the PowerCage.

1. Remove the PowerCage as outlined in
