This book is a project manual designed to provide practical laboratory experience for the student of Industrial controls: Its purpose is two fold (1) to provide structured laboratory experiences based on motor control applications. (2) to provide a background on programming control circuits and concepts that are used in industry. Throughout the manual the student will construct and program their own circuits focusing on "real-world" purposes. The projects and experiments will lead them in a step-by-step development process, designed to progress through various stages of programming instructions. The student's abilities to analyze and program circuits will progress as they complete each project. The simulator can be used to complete all the programming projects and experiments in the book. With the supervision of the instructor the simulator can be assembled and connected by students to provide valuable training.

Programmable Controller Circuits by Roger M.Bertrand,
This review is from: Programmable Controller Circuits (Electrical Trades (W/O Electro)) (Paperback)
Here, we can find a lot of examples of Programmable Logic controller circuits. Not only for the teacher who teach in PLC. subject but for everyone who are interesting in this field.

Buyer Beware!,
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Programmable Controller Circuits (Electrical Trades (W/O Electro)) (Paperback)
The title of this book, as well as the description, strongly suggest that it covers circuits. Unfortunately, it appears that in this case, the meaning of "circuit" has been hijacked by PLC industry practitioners and assigned a jargon definition that most closely approximates the existing words "Program", "Algorithm", "Procedure", or "Sequence".As you can see, none of these words has much to do with describing: If you are a USER of certain families of PLCs, perhaps this book will be of some use. However, at $50, I would strongly suggest just reading the PLC manual. If you intend to DESIGN a PLC, this book will be of absolutely NO USE, whatsoever.
