Abstract :
This paper describes the use of new generation of PLC´s and WinCC software in creating collaborative systems for managing, controlling and supervising building electric equipment. These systems assure all the requirements of a building and offer to the operators and maintenance technicians a more user friendly interface, accessible from distance and from many places. The communication between PLC´s and WinCC software is made using Industrial Ethernet making the monitoring and control more flexible.
