Electrical Switching, Timing, and Control Devices

This program covers your plant's most common switches, timers, and control devices. You have hundreds (probably thousands) of these devices in your plant.

We show how these devices work, wiring, and how to troubleshoot them. This program also provides the first step in learning ladder diagrams.

• Avoid costly wiring mistakes—read multi-position selector switches in ladder diagrams.
• Read the action and timing diagrams of ON-delay and OFF-delay timers to know which component to replace when something goes wrong.
• Avoid intermittent problems and ensure control relays receive the proper steady voltage.
• Learn how to cut your spare parts inventory to a minimum since many control devices share components.
• Troubleshoot tricky push button problems—don't replace the whole thing when it might just be the contact blocks.
