Assertion (A): Snubber circuit has an RC series circuit in parallel with SCR Reason (R): Voltage across a capacitor can not change instantaneously.

• Both A and R are correct and R is correct explanation of A
• Both A and R correct but R is not correct explanation of A
• A is correct but R is wrong
• A is wrong but R is correct

Correct Answer: Both A and R are correct and R is correct explanation of A

Explanation:

Since voltage across capacitor cannot change instantaneously it protects SCR against high .
