How to Draw a Wiring Diagram and Turn it into a PLC Program (EPLAN Tutorial) Reverse Forward Starter

[@anplechen]

Great thanks to the author! I'm very glad that eventually someone gives us such valuable content. Being Electrical Control Design Engineer I find this videos extremely valuable for me. So, please sir, provide more information about designing (preferably using EPLAN) industrial automation. For example using safety relays, sensors connection on the diagram, designing control panels, dealing with terminals and so... Perhaps looking through out one of your projects

[@Upmation]

Sure! We will consider your suggestion for next videos. Thank you!

[@beng2476]

Great video.!!!! I may be mistaken but shouldn't the "motor fault " XIC bit be in series with the stop XIC?

[@Upmation]

Hi, Ben! Sorry for missing out on your comment. The short answer to your question is, No! That is because the stop condition will depend on "Stop" AND "XIC" at the same time. It means that to be able to stop the motor, there should be a motor fault AND the "Stop" push button should be pushed simultaneously. For instance, if we push the "Stop" push button and there is not a motor fault in the circuit, then the motor WILL NOT STOP. So putting them in parallel will make them independent. Please let me know if I can be of further help.

Thanks for the basic tutorial, its ez to follow, just one question, I am using Eplan P8 ver.2.7 and i couldn't find the "Triple NO contact, 6 connection points" under the NO contact option, is this because i did something wrong or I need upgrade my version to 2.9?

[@Upmation]

Hi! I think something might go wrong with your library when you were installing the software. But to be sure before you reinstall the software or take any other action, please look more carefully for that item at the higher level of hierarchies. Thank you and please let me know if you found it or not.

[@user-tr9of4gu1h]

@@Upmation I tried to install the software but the symbol i need was still missing, is there any way that i can update my IEC symbol library?

[@muka_32]

Are you leaving the PLC program as it is? If so, the SR will never work. The reset is high, so no matter what happens on the set terminal, the output will always stay low. Am I missing sth?

[@hasanshhadi2062]

Hello sir, I'm confused about the NC motor fault in the ladder diagram. Shouldn't it be in series with the forward and the series NO contacts, so that when a short circuit occured, it will switch to NO and cuts the contacts of the motor? Please explain that issue in detail.

When k1 coil has on then k1 NC is open . After that when i want to reverse start don't turn on because k1 NC had ON .. Please define it

[@frequencygaming43]

A three phase motor usually has a starter to reduce starting current. How can we manage that along with the reverse functioning of the motor?

[@Upmation]

In this case you have to have a soft starter or VFD as well.

[@gandalf5632]

Hi, I am confused about wiring in 7:28. I see that you have used sinking type of connection(24VDC to coils), but i have checked the electrical diagram of this module in datasheet, and I saw that the outputs should be connected to the GND(sourcing type of output module), not 24VDC. Is this particular module both sinking and sourcing, I cannot find the information about that. Sorry, for my English skills ;) I would be grateful for response

[@Upmation]

Hey there! Thank you for your comment. Yes, you're right and it's a mistake in the drawing of the DO card. There should be '0 volts' connected to the other side of the devices that are connected to the DO card. Sorry about that! :)

[@gandalf5632]

@@Upmation Thanks for response! but I have second question, the Q1 motor overload switch have additional NC contact, so when it is ON the contact is closed, and whent it is OFF the contact is open? I am asking because considering relay it would be closed not energized, and open when the coil is energized. So it works in a different way

[@taavikoppel1769]

Some things bother me in the wiring diagrams. On the motor connection circuit L1; L2; L3 goes to W1; V1; U1... should be the other way around. So your reverse will actually make the motor go the intended way and vice versa. @5:28 the other ends of Outputs are connected to 24V... should go to 0V

[@Upmation]

Hey, Taavi! It seems these designations come from a standard which goes back to the early days of three-phase equipment. You're completely right about @5:28. For other people who read this, PLC DO cards will output the control voltage (24 volts, for instance) and therefore we should wire 0 Volts to the other connection of the devices. Thank you for your meticulous attention to details!

[@DerKB79]

@@Upmation I might add to this, the PE crossing over is considered bad practice. You could simply turn that arrow around (tab while inserting it) and place it over the PE of the motor.

[@Upmation]

@@DerKB79 Hey, Jörg! Thank you for the input! But according to the common practices (which we've talked about them in this video as well: upmation.com/wiring-diagrams/), we should outline the drawings so that we can read them from left to right. That's why all of the entering arrows are considered left to right.

[@DerKB79]

@@Upmation To avoid this, you could have gone PE - L3 - L2 - L1 at the top for example, putting your motor connections in order without crossing anything and you could have gone around any other connections with minimal crossing going on. But since you use PE only once here, there is no need for it. Another way of avoiding it, put PE on the buttom of the page and bring it up, like you mostly do in DC circuits, put +24 DC on the top of page and 0V on the buttom, same goes for AC, incomming on the top (230V for example), return on the bottom (for me that mostly is N). I think we are having this argument (if you can call it that) cause for me here in Germany, it´s a bit different then for you in the US i guess, we are using the same symbol libaries, but might not do everything the same way.

[@garylakin7900]

The "Stop" N/C contacts and the "Motor Fault" N/C contacts should be in series not in parallel as you have drawn them. They should have their own terminal point at the PLC as shown on your PLC input drawing.

[@jaspalSingh-by9bt]

Q.2 and Q.3 Both are used for reset purpose when any one input disconnect then q.0 will be reset so connections should be in parallel
