Chapter 54, Problem 1RQ
Why are NEMA symbols representing such components as push buttons, limit switches, and float switches not used in a programmable controller schematic?
Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
The reason why the NEMA symbols representing the components like push buttons, limit switches and the float switches are not used in the programmable control switches.
Explanation of Solution
The NEMA symbols are the symbols that are used to represent the electrical components.
Since, the PLC recognize only the closed and the open contacts only and it do not recognize that whether the swtich is connected to a component like push button, float swtich or the limit swtich. This is why the NEMA swtich is used in the programming of PLC.
Thus, to give the idea to PLC about the type of components connected, the NEMA symbols are used.

A union feedback control system has the following open loop transfer function
where k>0 is a variable proportional gain
i. for K = 1 , derive the exact magnitude and phase expressions of G(jw).
ii) for K = 1 , identify the gaincross-over frequency (Wgc) [where IG(jo))| 1] and phase cross-overfrequency [where <G(jw) = - 180]. You can use MATLAB command "margin" to obtain there quantities.
iii) Calculate gain margin (in dB) and phase margin (in degrees) ·State whether the closed-loop is stable for K = 1 and briefly justify your answer based on the margin . (Gain marginPhase margin)
iv. what happens to the gain margin and Phase margin when you increase the value of K?you
You can use for loop in MATLAB to check that.Helpful matlab commands : if, bode, margin, rlocus
