Draining Caps

[Pure_Brew]

What do you use to drain big caps (and small ones) in a power amp. Resistor/value?

Thank you!

10-50 ohm, 5 watt.

Ok cool TY, I think I have one of that value. I should hold it with something insulated I suppose, 4 x 150vdc might do more then tickle.

Put an alligator clip on both ends of it, along with 12" of #14 or #16 wire.

Yeah I'll likely just clip the buss bars, add resistor.
