Ladder Diagram Basics #1

[@babygangster4486]

I'm struggling to make this make sense at school, here i am at 2am with no rush listening to this guy who makes everything so clear and simple to understand. Great job

[@RayyTunes]

Hope you're doing well in the trade brother!⚡️

[@babygangster4486]

@@RayyTunes likewise brother man! I love the field, it's taking me places I never thought I was capable on working on. If it's on god's plan I hope to take a job starting with PLC's and start practicing all my micrologix simulations 😫 blessings

very helpful. helped me with my shop projects, this should be shown in class.

[@DANPER64]

Good explanation, makes it clean and simple.

[@vassg5]

Well done. Easy to follow and detailed instructions!

Thanks man. I'm a millwright apprentice in Kitchener. This stuff helps

[@davidhaines4173]

Thanks Pete. Nice commentary. You're a great teacher. I'm going to refer to Norm Macdonald's clips now.... all of your links are interesting ....especially Katie at Galco !

[@hamadaraine]

good explanation and easy to understand! Thank you sir!!

[@ryandavies9379]

Very Helpful as well as part 2 or 3....Thanks Pete!

Great Job Pete.

[@NicholasTheGreat]

Very helpful. I appreciate your expertise!

[@javierferrer4634]

Very helpful video! Thank you for sharing.

[@skillhtopasah2821]

very nice and great teaching method, great sir

[@RaymondBurton]

Thanks for this. Very helpful.

[@6lashon]

I am having this issue thanks for making this video. But one thing I’m not understanding is when it comes to wiring the block are you wiring it based on who you have it numbered in the diagram ? With the start button you jumper from the stop to the start then the number one goes on the bottom of the start button with number three

[@Rayram555]

Outstanding sir! Thank you

[@giovannihern252]

Hi, can you do a video with 11 pins and thank you for taking the time to make them they are as clear as a classroom .

[@Automationacademytv]

Thanks man I will make video like you, you video very informative

[@PeteVree]

Ok. Thanks for the nice comment. Good luck with your KZbin channel.

[@prodbynev]

Wonderfully done

[@sohailjanjua123]

Hi, I like your lecture . Thanks

[@Digiphex]

How did they get Norm Macdonald to do the voiceover on this?

[@PeteVree]

+Wavestrike Electronics Always amazes me how different you end up sounding on video compared to the manly voice that reverberates in my head. I'll take it as a compliment though. Here are some of Norm's best clips. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gJLHpoyVqLCWm5Y

[@feelgood3455]

I’m confused. Is the same power source going through the contacts and the coil?

[@PeteVree]

In this instance Yes. However, the coil could be 24V and the contacts could be controlling 120V

[@olaodeyemi3403]

Thank you. Please at point 3 & 4 (latching circuit). , 1 & 5, and 1 & 6 contacts to operate both red and green light. We have some terminals of relay there as well e.g at point 1&6, we have relay terminals of 8&6 as well. My question is are we connecting this relay terminal to this point as well

[@jacquedreyer5479]

Thanks Pete - much appreciated

[@alexguna1675]

Thanks! Can up load npn and pnp sensor working principle

[@layuptech]

Can you explain how the control relays coil will stay energized after the start push button returns to the open state

[@PeteVree]

Current still flows to the coil because the relay contacts have changed state. The normally-open (in rest state) is now closed. This provides a parallel path around the start pb to keep current maintained to the coil.

[@layuptech]

@@PeteVree kzbin.info/www/bejne/bWjXdZuOediZp6s thanks for all the valuable information

[@Eric12886]

relays are simple but the things you can do with them gets confusing

[@samneilsamson9785]

Thank you, this really helped me a lot on how a ladder diagram works on a relay. But do all ladder diagrams refer to relays? Or can they be used as basic point A to point B wiring? Thanks in advance!

[@PeteVree]

+Samneil Samson They don't always incorporate a relay. They could simply use a contactor for a motor. And, yes, you can often use a ladder diagram to simplify any circuit you are working on.

[@vasiqshair]

Great video. However, I don't see the need to use a jumper because 1-4 is fed directly from the power supply, and Pin 1 is hot regardless of state of the stop switch. And I'm not sure about using contact 8-5 as opposed to contact 1-4. They are both controlled by the coil and are fed independently from the power supply.

[@PeteVree]

Have a look again... the video is specifically made to address this misconception.

[@richreed3836]

so 2 and 7 on the 8 pin contactor feed the coil for the control circuit? which # is the neutral?

[@PeteVree]

Convention is that Pin 7 is the return/neutral

[@robertcomeau8714]

In your cautionary note, to clarify: as I see it it would initially work, but you could never shut off because the stop switch is bypassed, right?

[@PeteVree]

Yes. That is correct.

[@pikoytv4251]

What If the supply for the relay is 110v and the your pilot light only needs 15v what will you do

[@PeteVree]

A step down transformer would be required. Often a pilot light will incorporate a small step down transformer as part of the unit. Here is an example of a 120 v supply, 28V pilot light www.crescentelectric.com/industrial-automation-and-control/electrical-controls-and-accessories/indicatorpilot-lights-and-accessories/indicator-lights/indicator-or-pilot-lights/30mm-push-button-type-sk-pilot-light-transformer-120-vac-red-fresnel-cap

Any time. Thanks so much for the nice comments. All the best. Pete

[@7783786]

Thanks From Admin and All , Kindly share a video about how to interface between real schematic of customer (Hydro power Generator) to PLC

[@boomernyob4930]

The only thing I'm confused about is right before the 10 min mark when you say it bypasses the stop button when some people try to use 1 and 4. As I look at it, that contact would still change state when the stop button is pushed and the red light should work.

[@bfxp63]

that's how l see it too...

[@boomernyob4930]

Thanks for commenting. I wish Pete would chime in.

[@ussreeves]

When the start switch is pressed, power flows through it to energize CR, closing contact 1-3. The stop button is bypassed because point 8 and point 1 are both connected to supply voltage. So power is fed (follow the red line) past the stop switch. You can press the stop switch and it will have no effect. The correct NC contact to use would have been 8-5 for the red light.

[@PeteVree]

ussreeves has the best explanation below. Thanks for clearing this up guys.

[@justsayin7937]

Boomer NYOB You could still use contacts 1-4 if you use a separate piece of wire coming from L1 to pin 1. Then come out of pin 4 to your red light. But contacts 8-5 would be more efficient by not having to run an extra piece of wire.

[@umangelectricalcontractors1133]

Hi Pete, can you do me a simple three phase ATS DIagram using contactors, AC, DC timers and relays please? Include Generator Control to auto start as well. Do not include voltmeters, frequency meters & Cts...just a simple one.Thanks for your consideration.

[@robbiee.6921]

thank you this helps in my class

[@عابرسبيل-ي7ص]

Can you give idea how to read electrical drawing and how start

[@ogunsanwotoyin6558]

Yeah i got the formula it easy .Thanks

[@Hohmies86]

Excellent!!

[@jeffanderson6975]

Your stuck unless you put in another control relay right?

[@PeteVree]

The circuit as shown can be done with an 8 Pin relay, but if we needed more logic to happen, we would need a second CR or an 11 Pin Relay

[@arnellgalliano5366]

can u dicus about the 12"14"16 pin relay

[@michaelcostello6991]

In this schematic we numbered the terminals of the relay contacts. Why do we not number the stop, start and light terminals. Is this not done etc. I am an apprentice and would like to know this point for exam purposes. Thanks

[@PeteVree]

The light, push button terminals have no polarity, and so it would be redundant, and a complete waste of time to put numbers for all of those components. Also, it would really crowd your ladder diagram. On the relay, you have a choice of using commons 1 or 8 for example, so you have to put the terminal numbers in for ease of installation and trouble shooting later on.

[@michaelcostello6991]

Thanks for clarifying this in detail. Now i appreciate the terminal numbering better and its importance in wiring diagrams.

[@mugalahenry8097]

The relay has those numbers, he's just trying to help on how to use each number on the relay

[@johnvrabec9747]

On an electrical schematic, those termination or landing points would be called out.

sir please could you make a video drawing a diagram of a gameshow button with buzzer and relay timer... please

[@mango10969]

dude thanks . good teaching . 1 question . is that a latching circuit . i mean pb 1 and pb 2 , with that coin at the first line ???

[@PeteVree]

+Lc Fadz It "latches" because the holding contact closes and provides an additional path for current to be maintained to the coil
