A good location for a PLC enclosure is close to:

A) the machine or processor.
B) large AC motors.
C) high-frequency welders.
D) annealing furnaces.

Annealing Furnaces

High-temperature ovens used in manufacturing to heat materials like metals, allowing them to cool slowly in order to reduce hardness, increase ductility, and relieve internal stresses.

  • Acquire knowledge on the considerations for PLC installation, including location, enclosure protection, grounding, noise suppression, and handling voltage variations.

Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
The PLC enclosure should be located close to the machine or processor it is controlling to ensure quick communication and response times. Locating it near other equipment, such as large AC motors, high-frequency welders, or annealing furnaces, can lead to interference or damage to the PLC from electrical noise or heat.
