PLC WIRING
PLC WIRING There are two types of wiring in PLC : NPN WIRING (SINK) PNP WIRING (SOURCE) NPN WIRING : There is point in PLC at input side labeled as S/S that decides the Sink or Source mode. If you connected SMPS -24V to the S/S point, then all the input points of that PLC shared common -24V, this type of wiring is known as NPN wiring or Sink Mode as shown in figure below. Now as indicated in the above diagram -24V from SMPS is connected to S/S point. So at input points you have to connect +24V of SMPS through Push buttons , Limit Switches , Sensors etc. PNP WIRING : There is point in PLC at input side labeled as S/S that decides the Sink or Source mode. If you connected SMPS +24V to the S/S point, then all the input points of that PLC shared common +24V, this type of wiring is known as PNP wiring or Source Mode as shown in figure below.
