Bleed resistor AND Led

Posted by jbolt001

Sorry to rehash this againg but I'm not getting the whole picture. My
PS is 24VAC at the secondary so this should be 33.6VDC at the CAP.
The CAP is 25000uF 50V.

What size bleed resistor do I need and could someone show me the math
to figure this out. Can I connect the (-) side of the bleed resistor
to the gound side of the normaly closed contactor used for the Gecko
disable instead of across the cap or is this a bad idea? My thinking
is to only have the bleed resistor active when the power is off.

For the LED across the CAP what size resistor do I put in series and
again the math to figure this out?

Many Thanks,

Jay
