Simple question, with probably a very simple answer, but I cannot seem to wrap my head around it.
It is my understanding that the purpose of chokes in a dimming module (D20 let's say) is to limit the "slam" of current to the load fillament to reduce noise. If that "slam" is coming from the SCR firing midway through the AC sinewave, why then would the chokes be wired before the "dimming" process instead of after? In my mind, it makes more sense for the chokes to be after the SCR's so they would filter the current that the SCR's are producing.
Thanks!
