Italian term

logica

Italian to English Tech/Engineering Energy / Power Generation
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.
Note from asker:
Thanks for answering here Jim I was learning about the subject (safety logic) from your response when Oliver's discussion put me on the right track for the whole sentence.

safety logic

this is the software that is coded to represent the rules of operation for the plant in question. It normally consists of relay circuit logic coded into 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
Note from asker:
