Hi.
I have a wire EDM machine that must stop the 3 phase motor fast. The machine got 3 large 400 volt capacitors connected in parallel to that circuit, but i can only find a single diode connected to them. How can one diode change the caps to DC? The wire connections all look original, only the diode wire connection don't look original.
