It is very obvious from the comments posted in this thread that the people driving the use of the RaspberryPi as a PLC training tool have not conducted any professional‚ electrical and electronic engineering research into the design criteria required for an educational PLC or are prepared to acknowledge the legally required European Union safety compliance to IEC61508 and IEC 611313. A PLC’s functional criterion is an industrial control device used to automate electrically driven machinery

Theory behind my experiment Thickness (cross sectional area of the wire)‚ length‚ and temperature all have some effect on the amount of resistance created in a wire. Another factor is the conductivity of the material we are using. Some metals are just more electrically conductive than others. As long as I use the same type of metal for each wire‚ my experiment will remain fair. Cross Sectional Area The thicker the wire‚ the less resistant it is. This is because there are more electrons

I picked up my pencil- this was not an electrical engineering exam at school: instead of lounging at the beach with my friends‚ I had chosen to spend my summer at Specialised Power Systems (“SPS”)‚ designing and building Mr. Rowleys‘s switchboard. As the engineers and I gathered around and started

Electrical circuit is a path which electrons from a voltage or current source flow. Electric current flows in a closed path called an electric circuit. The point where those electrons enter an electrical circuit is called the "source" of electrons. The point where the electrons leave an electrical circuit is called the "return" or "earth ground". The exit point is called the "return" because electrons always end up at the source when they complete the path of an electrical circuit. The part of an

1. INTRODUCTION Electrical substation for distribution system is the main supply to convert the high voltage (HV) to low voltage (LV) and the place where load are distributed to the consumers. In Malaysia‚ Tenaga Nasional Berhad Distribution (TNBD) used the 33/0.433kV‚ 22/0.433kV‚ 11/0.433kV and 6.6/0.433kV voltage system for the electrical system to supply for domestic consumer and industrial consumer such as factory which will supplied directly from Transmission Main Intakes (PMU)‚ Main Distribution

conveniently designed conductive disks allow the electrical load of the generator to be fed either with alternating current or direct current. the loop terminals is sinusoidal with zero mean value (Fig. 2). Its frequency is equal to the number of revolutions per second executed by the loop. Each terminal of the loop is connected to a metallic ring. The contacts with rings are made by means of fixed brushes. If the brushes are connected to an electrical load‚ an alternating current will be established
