Replacing the snubber circuit capacitor

Electric shock hazard
The snubber circuit capacitors are not equipped with discharge resistors. The energy stored
in the capacitors is discharged via a circuit in the thyristor electronics. This circuit is interrupted
when the thyristor electronics are withdrawn.
Voltages of up to several 1000 V can occur and cause an electric shock. This can result in
death, severe injuries and significant material damage.
● In this case you should always handle the capacitors as if they were charged.
● Discharge the snubber circuit capacitors. Short-circuit the snubber circuit capacitors
