Write Ladder Logic for the Simple Program

Write ladder logic for the simple ON/OFF of motor and lamp.

When

  1. Switch S1 and Switch S2 ON —– Motor 1 ON
  2. Switch S3 or Switch S4 ON —— Lamp 1 ON & Motor 1 OFF
  3. Switch S5 ON —– Lamp 1 OFF & Motor 1 ON again

When S1 and S2 ON Both are In ON Condition) should make Motor 1 should go ON.

When S3 or S4 (Anyone ON) will make lamp 1 ON and Motor 1 (Which was already turned ON by S1) to go OFF.

When S5 ON, lamp 1 (Which was already turned ON by S3 or S4) should go OFF and Motor 1 again ON (Which was already turned OFF by S3 or S4).

Logic Explanation

Network 1:

When switch 1 and switch 2 are pressed, the motor will turn on. Switch 3 and 4 are connected as normally closed contact in series with the output which will make output to go off when anyone goes ON.

Switch 5 is connected as normally open contact in parallel to turn ON motor again.

Network 2:

Switch 2 and 3 are connected as normally open contact in parallel with the output which will make output lamp 1 to go ON if anyone is ON.

Switch 5 is connected as normally closed contact to break the power line when switch 5 goes ON.

  1. The circuit is correct with the use of the five switches, I think it’s still possible to make use of more than two outputs.
    But to limit the cost the circuit was design as simple as it is.
