The rapid development of automation system is inseparable from the development of technology in the field of control. In its development, a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) has been widely used on an industrial scale. PLC programmable can be used as a controller of three phase induction motor. If an error occurs, it can be quickly identified and the work function of each device can be monitored and will also be easier to develop a method of control in the industry. This situation led to many large industries using PLC for all control equipment. In this study created a system of control of three phase induction motor using Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) with the method of Star (Y). Inrush current when the displacement of the position of Star (Y) to Delta (Δ) is expected to be reduced. The results of the research that has been done the tool can work well and yield value in accordance with the theory. As well as a tool in the design of specialized trainer so it can be used as a learning media.


Energy efficiency of Induction motor (IM) is essential in the current scenario due to the reasons such as energy conservation and economic saving. In this project, the implementation of the safe speed control of IM is done. The Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) monitors the speed and trips the motor under safety requirements. PLC is used to control three phase IM with the Variable Frequency Drive (VFD). The availability of drive data and software helps to manipulate and analyze process the information. The Human Machine Interface (HMI) is used for the visual monitoring and control of the induction motor. The PLC based control platform makes system to be communicated to other devices on network and makes the system more flexible for its operation and control. The results shows that, the speed of the induction motor varies linearly with the change in frequency in HMI and the motor trips if there is any human interference within 10 cm operating range of IM.
