Is there any implication on not using a snubber network on a TRIAC circuit? Note the gate of the TRIAC is triggered by an opto-isolated TRIAC with zero crossing capability.

Better add a snubber!But if I am using an inductive load and I did not add a snubber hope the circuit will work?
What type of capacitors should be used for snubbering? The current demand of my load is 10Amps, help me with the values of resistor and capacitor that should be used and If possible please attach pictures.
... is there any relationship between the power handling capacity of a resistor used for snubber and the transient to be suppressed?
Note: For inductive load with rms current higher than 4 A, Snubberless TRIACs are recommended.
Does it mean that an insulated Triac does not require a heatsink.
