Tech/Engineering - Energy / Power Generation
Italian term or phrase: logica
This is from a technical specification for a step grate combustor and this section details the video monitoring equipment in the combustion chamber: La parte di controllo è realizzata con PLC, mentre la parte della supervisione è realizzata con SCADA. "La logica sicurezze è realizzata con logica cablata."

Anyone care to pick up some KudoZ points for helping me find a nice, succinct way to say that last phrase? It ain't logical IMO.

Yes as Oliver said the safety logic is implmented with wired logic, in the hardware rather than in the software.

there are two different meanings of logica in the text. One is safety logic and the other is wired logic, so I guess that logic is the right answer
