I have a contactor with an AC coil, controlled by a small SPDT relay, and I have the need for a snubber to reduce kickback when the relay opens.
It would greatly simplify things if I were able to mount the snubber network on the board with the relay, which is a few feet from the AC coil on the contactor.
I do realize that having the snubber network seperated from the AC coil by a few feet is going to have the wires acting as little antennae, but for the purposes of protecting the contacts on the little relay, will it be fine?
Thanks,
Jon
