Energy Management using PLC

Abstract

This paper presents the load control in the industry during peak hours by using PLC and monitors all load parameters of the motors on PC by using SCADA. The Energy management is the highest demand of the organizations to reduce their energy cost. Confirm to the regulatory requirements and improve their corporate image. The automation used in the industries has several benefits. To accomplish the automation in the industry we have knowledge of PLC and SCADA. PLC is a programmable logic controller which controls the load or machines in industry. PLC programming is done by using ladder logic. The overall automation of the industry is controlled by SCADA software. SCADA define as a centralized system that control and monitor the whole sites. SCADA is used for collecting the data from various sensors or machines and then monitor the proper functioning of the machines. Automation will make the industry safe, cheap, highly efficient and maintained free.
