dear,

I am trying to understand how to convert from set of calculation for a PLC cabinet (attached), how it was converted from 56.1Watts under 24VDC to 180Watts for 230VAC.

thanks for any help,

charbel

It's not a conversion. 56.1 is the sum of all 24 VDC devices and 180.0 is the sum of all 230 VAC devices.

236.10W being the sum of both 24 & 230v devices.

The power required from two different voltages is 24 VDC and 230VAC. It is not being "converted" from one to the other. The two requirements are "added" together as shown below the line you have outlined for a total need of 236.1 watts.
