Draw typical wiring details & four specifications of AC output module of PLC.

1 Answer

Answer :

The below figure show the basic field wiring for digital 120V AC output module. The Wiring diagrams show how wires of output devices are connected to screw terminals of PLC modules. As per the wiring diagram, User has to connect the wires of input and output devices to PLC or Module. It can be thought of as a simple switch power can be provided to control the output device. During normal operation, processor sends the output state that was determined by logic diagram of output module. The module then switches the power to the field devices. A fuse is normally provided in that the output circuit of the module to prevent excessive current from damaging the wiring to the field devices.
