Failure To Route Leads Properly Can Lead To
Failure Of Freewheeling Diodes.
Dressing Of Freewheeling Diode Snubber
Leads.
Red wire of snubber resistor must be routed under
capacitor self lead. Red wire terminal must have a
minimum 1/8" clearance from the bus bar on diode
terminal #2.
Note: Bus bar connecting terminal no. 3 is not
shown for terminal clarity.
The red snubber leads are numbered as viewed
from the rear of the power source:
