A programmable logic controller is a small computer that controls and automates a machine and its processes. It gathers data through its inputs (sensors) and sends instructions to its output to perform operations. However, the main function of a PLC is to control a system's activities through the logic it is programmed with. Hence, system automation has become a common practice in most organizations.
Inputs are received by the PLC either from the automated data capture points, for example, sensors and cameras, or from human input points like switches or buttons. Then it will take the input and determine whether an output needs to change. The outputs of the PLC, for example, can control large numbers of devices such as lights, switchgear, solenoid valves, motors, safety shut-offs, and so on. You can enroll in a PLC programming course to understand it comprehensively.

Enrolling in a PLC training program will introduce you to the different components of PLC. The major components of a PLC include:


  • Central Processing Unit (CPU): It acts as the central processor and controls all actions within the PLC. It generates the control logic and process of inputs and outputs.
  • Input/Output (I/O) Modules: The I/O modules enable PLCs to connect with sensors and actuators.
  • Power Supply: It is a power source for the entire PLC system.
  • Programming Device: It is used to compose and upload programs to the PLC.
  • Memory: This component is responsible for storing programs and related data.
  • Communication Interface: It is the connectivity link for communication with other systems or PLCs.
To get a detailed understanding of all the components, you can consider taking a PLC course.
Here are some applications of PLCs across various industries:
  • Factories: It helps in automating production lines, machinery, and conveyor systems.
  • Process Industries: It enables controlling batched processes, temperatures, and pressures.
  • Building Systems: PLCs monitor and regulate HVAC (heat, ventilation, and air conditioning) control, lighting, and other building automation systems.
  • Other Areas: It is used in areas like water treatment plants, oil and gas plants, and renewable power generation.
Given the versatility of its use, opting to learn PLC programming is highly valuable as demand remains strong across all fields.
PLC programming languages are standardized under IEC 61131-3 (an international standard for programmable controller programming languages). The common languages used in PLC include:
  • Ladder Logic
  • Function Block Diagram
  • Structured Text
  • Instruction List
  • Sequential Function Chart
SCADA stands for ‘Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition’. It is defined as an architectural framework for control that incorporates the use of computers, wired communication networks, and graphical user interfaces for process supervisory control. It allows operators to monitor and control industrial processes locally or at remote locations. SCADA systems collect data from various sensors and devices, process this information, and present it through a human-machine interface. Enrolling in an online PLC course will enable you to master SCADA and its uses.
The future scope of PLC is driven by its integration technologies like AI, IoT, and machine learning. As automation continues to be integrated into various industries, the need for professionals with knowledge of programmable logic controllers (PLCs) is expected to increase. Individuals with PLC programming skills will likely find job opportunities in roles like PLC programmers, automation specialists, and control systems engineers. They can work in various industrial sectors, including manufacturing, energy, etc.
All the software/tools that you need for the training would be shared with you during the training as and when you need it.
You can watch videos and take quizzes and module tests on any device, including mobile. However, a laptop or desktop is required for assignments, practice, and the final test.
For assignments, practice, and the final test, you need a laptop or desktop with a supported operating system, a stable internet connection, and an updated Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox browser. The final test requires Windows 8 or above and with minimum 1 GB Ram, or an equivalent supported desktop operating system. Mobile phones and tablets are not supported for the final test.
There are no prerequisites for this training as it is of beginner level. Everything that you need to know about PLC Programming would be taught to you from scratch.
Your final test will be proctored, so a working webcam and microphone would be required. Please ensure that they are available and enabled before starting the test.
If you face any technical issue during the final test, contact the support team through the available support channel and share the issue along with a screenshot, if possible.
You can choose your preferred batch date while signing up for the training program and start accordingly.
As this is a purely online training program, you can choose to learn at any time of the day and for as much time as you want. We will recommend a pace to be followed throughout the program, but the actual timings and learning hours are in your hands.
From your batch start date, you will have access to training's content (videos, quizzes, tests, assignments, projects etc.) in the platform for 6 weeks within which you should be able to complete your training.
As this is a purely online training program, you can choose to spend as much time as you want per day and the more time you spend, sooner you would be able to complete the training. However, on an average, spending 1-2 hours per day should be sufficient for you to complete the training in 6 weeks. Some students also choose to devote more time on the weekends in case they are not able to give time on the weekdays.
Dont worry! If for some reason, you are unable to complete the course in 6 weeks, you will have the option to get a 2-week extension for Rs. 799.
Having 6 weeks access ensures you have a deadline to work with and are able to complete the training. It also helps you beat procrastination and maintain continuity in your studies which is why Internshala Trainings students have some of the best training completion rates in the industry.
If you have completed the training, you would be able to download the training content and have lifetime access to it for future reference.
