I have never worked on such thing before, so I'm not sure so thus i brought attention to it.

"In modern power electronics, they are commonly found to reduce ringing. A snubber circuit limits or stops (snubs) switching voltage amplitude and its rate of rise, therefore reducing power dissipation."


VS what Electronic M mentioned, using 2 series pair of 2KV .82uF.

bandersentv has done this many times, and would know the most about it.
