Greets,

What wattage resistors are required for NST protection?
I think I have been seeing wattage resistors that
are a lot lower than the actuall watts of the NST.
Can someone explain how this works.

I have also been reading about 1/2 watt bleed resistors
on each cap in an MMC.  How does this work when the wattage
on a 15kv-at-60ma could be 900 at some given point in time.

Cheers,
Bill
