Hello
Can someone recommend testing equipment one can use to simulate both digital and analogue singles that a commissioning technician can use ? What input generators can be used to feed 0/1 signals to PLC ? Thank
xnuke , Thank for your response. Please provide a schematic if possible ?
itsmoked, yes but these are not important, I just need to trigger the MOVs without caring too much about the monitoring signals
Dear all,
I would like to control motorised operated valves using PLC which is in turn is triggered by a manual switch . I’m now adding a scada system and want to be able to trigger both the PLC using the manual switch and the scada ( simply by triggering a digital input signal ‘1’). What are...

Hello,
I am designing the power infrastructure for a factory that has around 20 CNN, Welding , drilling machines etc ( with loads between 4A to 50A) and based on the loads I have, the max amperage demand is around 400A with a diversity of 50%. with this in mind, one can supply these through...
Hello,
Do we normally need to take the charging current into consideration when we size the MCB for static inverters? says we have (3Phase in-1phase out) 11KVA static inverter , what would be a good size that we can use for the MCB when supply voltage is 415V?
Hello everyone,
can someone give me a firm answer on the way in which generators feeding fire pumps can be sized ? is this carried out with respect to the inrush current or the nominal bearing in mind the first is 3times the latter ( start Delta starting)?
