Conductors
Materials that allow the flow of electrons are called
conductors. Some good conductors are:
Gold
Silver
Aluminium
Copper
Most metals
Resistors
A resistor
is a two-terminal electrical or
electronic component that resists an
electric current by producing a voltage drop
between its terminals in accordance with
Ohm's law.

Types Of Resistors
Fixed
Resistors
Some resistors are cylindrical, with the actual
resistive material in the center (composition
resistors, now obsolete) or on the surface of
the cylinder (film) resistors, and a conducting
metal lead projecting along the axis of the
cylinder at each end(axial lead). There are
carbon film and metal film resistors
Types of Resistors
Variable
Resistors
The variable resistor is a resistor whose
value can be adjusted by turning a shaft or
sliding a control. They are also called
potentiometers or rheostats and allow the
resistance of the device to be altered by
hand. The term rheostat is usually reserved
for higher-powered devices, above about 1/2
watt.
Adding Resistors
The total resistance of
two
resistors in series is
the
sum of their individual
values.

Ohms Law
Ohms Law is a formula that shows the
relationship between Voltage (E), Current
(I), and Resistance (R).
E=IxR
Ohms Law is applicable to all
electrical circuits.

Capacitors
A capacitor is made by
separating two
conductive plates by an
insulator or dielectric.
Capacitors store energy
electrostatically.
Capacitors tend to block
DC and pass AC.
Transistors
A transistor
Types of transistor
The leads are labeled base (B), collector (C) and emitter (E).

LADDER LOGIC
Ladder
Logic
PLC had to be maintainable by technicians
and electrical personnel. To support this the
programming language of Ladder Logic was
developed. Ladder Logic is based on the
relay and contact symbols technicians were
used to through wiring diagrams of electrical
control panels.
