What is an Electromechanical Relay and How to Use it?
In this video, you’ll first get to know about Electromechanical relays that are the most used types of relays. Then, you’ll see how electric relays work and learn about the relay wiring diagram. After all, we’ll answer some questions: What do we use a relay for? How to wire a relay? We also talk about the combination of normally open and normally closed contacts of the relays which will shape different types of mechanical relays.
How to Read a PLC Wiring Diagram (Control Panel Wiring Diagram)
Reading a PLC Wiring Diagram is one of the must-to-learn skills for every automation and electrical engineer. Despite different standards of these types of drawings, you’ll learn using actual industrial drawings and some PLC wiring best practices.
PLC Programming Course (P4): Start and Stop a Motor PLC Program
Learning by example is one of the most effective methods of learning PLC programming. So, as we have promised in the first part of this course, we are going to continue with another practical example.
In this part, you are going to extend your understanding of the basics of ladder logic PLC programming by turning ON and OFF an electric motor using the Siemens TIA Portal.
The Automation Forum.
Now it’s time to join to the community of the experts and let’s work together to solve our problems. You can ask about whatever related to the electrical, automation and instrumentation and of course you can answer the other members questions as an active member. We’ll consider some advantages for active members in the future.
