Tutoring not my business, it is my Passion.

PLC has replaced the hard wired logic controls.if you want to change the logic,that can be done in few moments and most important the complicated logic by hard wired are very simple with the help of PLC.

It's a solid-state, programmable electrical/electronic interface that can manipulate, execute, and/or monitor, at a very fast rate, the state of a process or communication system. It operates on the basis of programmable data contained in an integral microprocessor-based system. A PLC is able to receive (input) and transmit (output) various types of electrical and electronic signals and can control and monitor practically any kind of mechanical and/or electrical system. Therefore, it has enormous flexibility in interfacing with computers, machines, and many other peripheral systems or devices. read less

Automation engineers will be in greater demand as manufacturing/plants get more automated and energy efficiency gets more important. Sounds like a pretty good match, IT for the coding portion of PLC & SCADA and Electrical background for PLC hardware. If you are half decent at both, you will be an average PLC/SCADA programmer(Automation Engineer sounds cooler). If you are good at both you will be someone awesome in the company. If you like solving problems for the plant floor(think pumps, valves, sensors) via automation then you have found the perfect career. read less

This scope to the answer to this question is so vast that it would be impossible to go in details but on the whole, every big company, industry or any infrastructure requires some of the tasks to be preformed repeatedly with absolute precision and reliability. PLC or programmable logic controllers are the components that do this job. They are basically high quality set of controllers that made to run without failures. eg: lifts, electric supplies, conveyors, ladders, fire systems, etc all are controlled by plc. So that they do not fail. In short, people pay more money to get high quality plc to avoid risk of breakdown. read less
