Connect both sides
of the cables to the
terminal of the D.P.D.T.Blade
Switch.
7-4 Connecting the wind generator output cable extension
Wireless Monitor (Optional)
A total of four power cables extend
from the wind generator:
*Each cable is 20 inch(500mm)
long. Use a compression sleeve
to connect the extension
cable that leads to
the D.P.D.T. switch. Use
electrical tape or a shrink
tube to insulate the
connections.
Important
Pay attention to the +and -terminals when connecting the power cable to
the battery.
A reverse connection will cause serious damage to the unit.
7-5 Connection example
The wind generator can be used in a multitude of configurations. This
section shows a typical connection.
When the wind turbine is not generating power because whatever
reason (normal, protection or some miss-connection to the battery bank),
the status indicator LED (lamp) remains off.
In this condition, the current to keep running the wind turbine’s controller
(microprocessor, LED light, etc.) comes from the battery.
This current is insignificant (less than 8 mA).
NOTE: Do not be confused by the spark that can happen on a controller’s
DC-Output wire, when connecting to the battery or when activating the
brake function. This is an instantaneous high current pulse due to the
inrush current of the output capacitor inside the turbine. This happen
