BUT! Are'nt we talking about stopping a blade on a TS? Most contractors

Stopping the motor had better stop the blade, and darn quick. Certainly
fast
enough for the stated problem (not SawStop).


That would be the desired effect but with a contractors saw I would be
shocked if the motor stopped and the blade did not continue to spin a few
times.
