Ladder Rung

A horizontal section of a ladder logic diagram, representing a specific logic operation in PLC programming.

Off-Delay Timer

An electromechanical relay with contacts that change state a predetermined time period after power is removed from its coil; on re-energization of the coil, the contacts return to their shelf state immediately; also, a programmable logic controller instruction that emulates the operation of the electromechanical off-delay relay.

Ladder Rung
