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.
 

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