Snubber circuit design for BTA41 600BT Triac

[Mrunal Ahirrao]

Hi all,
I want to control AC water pump which may be having max current=10A using BTA41600B Triac. And I quiet new to designing snubber circuit for such high load. And I am not getting the values for R and C and I read in application note that "R" should be a snubber resistor. What is snubber resistor? is it the High wattage resistor? Any help would be appreciated.

What pump parameter ur control using Triac or just making on-off

Thnx for reply. I am just switching it ON/OFF.

Assume single phase motor. Use high rating relay having current capacity 20A or 10A for inductive load which is easy.

So I cant use BTA41 TRIAC? and need to use relay?
