Summary

Control reliability is a benchmark for the design of safety control circuits. Properly designed control circuits ensure the safety of the system overall. There are several Categories of circuits for safety systems. OSHA refers to control reliable circuits for safety functions, while current ANSI and ISO standards refer to these safety circuit classifications as Performance Levels (PL) and Safety Integrity Levels (SIL).

Join us as we discuss the basic wiring designs of safety circuits to help you fulfill OSHA requirements and meet the conditions of a specific PL or SIL rating.
