c) The number of ladder logic virtual relays and input and output
instructions is limited only by memory size.
c) The physical wires between the input and output field devices and
the PLC input and output modules are the only signal wires required in
the PLC system.
d) The cost and size of PLCs have increased significantly in the last
10 years.
b) The NC contact and the pole are in contact when the relay is off.
c) NC contact symbol has the same two parallel lines with a line across
them to indicate closed contacts.
d) The right power rail is positive or the high side of the source,
and the left power rail is the power return or ground.

The area in the CPU in which the information is stored and retrieved
Power Supply: The electrical supply that converts the ac voltage to
various DC operating voltages.
SCAN takes place from left to right of each rung. Usually SCAN time is
in milliseconds and it is a continuous process.
More Flexibility:
User can modify the programs in the field and if required, security can
be enhanced by hardware interlocks such as key locks and software
features such as passwords
Lower Cost:
With PLCs the cost savings have been so significant that the relay
control becomes uneconomical except for some power applications.
Communication Capability:
Faster Response:
PLCs are designed for high speed and for the real time
applications.Response time for PLCs are much smaller compared to
relay logic circuits.
Easy to Troubleshoot:
PLCs have inbuilt diagnostics and override functions that helps the
user to easily trance the software and hardware errors.
PLCs will operate on any systems which will have input field devices
that are On-Off type (discrete or digital ) or analog input devices.
Similarly it will operate on the field devices which will be discrete or
analog output type.
In simple words, Hence PLC acts as interface between the input and
output devices at the process side of the industries. It monitors the
inputs receive from the input devices and takes necessary output
control functions by executing the programs stored in its memory.
