✔ Commonly used as VFD speed reference pots
✔ Stable and repeatable output
📌 Always confirm the input type of your PLC or VFD (resistive vs voltage).
🔌 Industrial Wiring – PLC / VFD (Typical)
Most PLCs and VFDs expect a 3-wire potentiometer:
| Potentiometer | PLC / VFD |
|---|---|
| VCC / + | +10V reference |
| Signal (Wiper) | Analog input |
| GND / − | Analog ground |
📌 This is the most common VFD speed control wiring.
⚠ Do not exceed the reference voltage supplied by the drive or PLC.
🔌 Microcontroller Wiring (Arduino / ESP)
Arduino Uno (5V ADC)
| Potentiometer | Arduino |
|---|---|
| VCC | 5V |
| GND | GND |
| Signal | A0 |
ESP32 / ESP8266 (3.3V ADC)
| Potentiometer | ESP32 |
|---|---|
| VCC | 3.3V |
| GND | GND |
| Signal | GPIO34 (ADC) |
⚠ ESP32 ADC inputs are not 5V tolerant.

📏 Resistance Value Selection Guide (Industrial & Maker)
Available values:
1kΩ · 2kΩ · 5kΩ · 10kΩ · 20kΩ · 50kΩ · 100kΩ · 200kΩ · 500kΩ
| Resistance | Typical Use |
|---|---|
| 1kΩ – 2kΩ | PLC & VFD reference inputs |
| 5kΩ – 10kΩ | Most common VFD / PLC + Arduino use |
| 20kΩ – 50kΩ | Reduced current draw |
| 100kΩ | Low-power applications |
| 200kΩ – 500kΩ | Ultra-low-current manual adjustment |
📌 10kΩ is the safest universal choice unless a PLC/VFD specifies otherwise.
⚠ High-Value Potentiometer Notes (100kΩ+)
For 100kΩ and above:
-
Increased susceptibility to electrical noise
-
Long cable runs may require filtering
✔ Recommended Industrial Noise Filtering
-
0.01µF–0.1µF capacitor between signal & ground
-
Shielded cable for long runs
🔋 Approximate Current Draw (at 10V reference)
| Resistance | Current |
|---|---|
| 1kΩ | ~10 mA |
| 10kΩ | ~1 mA |
| 100kΩ | ~0.1 mA |
| 500kΩ | ~0.02 mA |
🌧 Environmental & Mechanical Notes
