A PLC-based automatic transfer switch (ATS) may improve production in the industry efficiency and also the household power connection. It's an electrical switch that may be used to change the load when the main power is failing to supply electricity. Manually controlled transfer switches exist. In this scenario, a switch must be thrown by an operator to take manual control of the system. Some, on the other hand, are activated automatically when the main power source fails. When a major source of electricity is no longer functioning, power from a new or used generator can be either manually or automatically transferred when utilize a transfer switch for transferring control to the on- side application. Using a programmable logic controller (PLC), we describe the implementation and design of an automatic transfer switch (ATS). The primary function of a transfer switch is to divert electricity from the main grid to a standby power supply. Single-phase and three-phase circuit breakers, Siemens Logo PLC, relays, and indicator lights are used in this system. This portable and economic system would be helpful to every domestic, industrial, factory, and academic institution.
