Triac Snubber shows is has voltage in OFF state!

Hi , I have designed and made a triac switch , to turn ON and OFF a 3-speed AC motor that works with 220VAC. with tree triac series an all the triacs have a snubber (R-C) circuit.

the problem is when the circuit is in OFF state , the triac outputs shows that it has 220V voltage(with a Phase Meter screwdriver) . but when i check with a multimeter it doesnt show any voltage. i know that it doesnt have a real voltage but i dont know what is the problem?

It's normal behaviour, your screwdriver is measureing from line to earth.

Capacitive coupling or a tiny bit of leakage.
