2.4.4 As for the installation of other circuit, all of it should be protected by the wire because it’s easy to damage
for the expose.
3For your safety, please read these instruction carefully before installation or operation.

1 Sitting
Small changes in wind speed and wind direction can have a dramatic effect on power produc-
tion. In general, the higher the tower, the greater the wind speed and ultimately power
production. Therefore, the siting of yourwind turbine should be carefullyconsideredEach
installation is different and is often a compromise among tower height, distance from the
battery bank, local zoning requirements and obstacles such as buildings and trees.
Specific requirements about installation and sitting of wind turbine are as follows:
2.1 The minimum recommended tower height is 8m on open ground or 5m above nearby
obstructions. there are no obstacles within 100 meters as far as possible:
2.2 If install two wind turbines on one area, the distance between them is 8-10 times of rotor
diameter. Try to locate the wind turbine in the “cleanest” turbulent free air as possible. Turbu-
lence will reduce the efficiency ofthe wind turbine and may accelerate wear on rotating
components.
2.3 Less natural disaster places are preferred.
2.4 Safety must be the primary concern when selecting the mounting location. Even if install-
ing the wind turbine in a less than ideal location. don‘t attempt to mount the turbine while
blades are spinning.

Wind and solar Hybrid power system configuration introduction
5.1 Wind and solar hybrid controller
Wind and solar hybrid controller will be matched with the wind turbine according to different
areas. The common controller has: PWM mode direct-charging wind and solar Hybrid control-
ler which is mainly used in high wind speed areas: MPPT mode boost controller which is
mainly used in low wind speed areas.
5.2 Inverter
For customers who need AC power, it is recommended to use AC220V/50HZ or AC110V/130HZ
Inverter, the capacity should be determined according to maximum electricity load.
5.3 Battery
There are many battery choices available -lead acid, absorbed glass mat (AGM), gel cell and
NiCad. The type of battery utilized will depend largely on the battery bank location and cost.
For battery installations where fumes can be safely ventilated and the potential for acid
leakage accommodated, the lead-acid battery is typically the most economical choice.
200AH/12V batteries are recommended for GE wind turbine owners. Negative pole of the
battery should be a good grounding. The capacity must be based on electricity load of the
owners.

5.4 Wire Size
All electrical systems Iose energy due to resistance in conductors: the wires.
Large wires have less resistance but can be considerably more costly. Resistance losses will
also increase with increasing current; therefore, if yours is a high wind site, it may be worth-
while to go with a larger size wire to take advantage of the greater power production potential
of your site. Conversely, in low wind sites it may not be cost effective to increase the wire size
since power production will be low.
For selection of wire size, the following factors should be taken into consideration:
1. Measuring the distance from the batteries to your wind turbine. Be sure to include height of
the tower;
2. Your system voltage;
3. Your system power distance.
For selection of wire size, the following factors should be followed:
1. Practical and affordable;
2. Satisfying using condition;
3. The positive pole of battery is red line, negative pole is black Iine (or blue line).
The following wiring sizes provide maximum annual energy losses of 5% or less for sites with a
5.4m/s average wind speed (assuming the standard Rayleigh distribution of wind speeds)
which is sufficient for most sites.
Refer to the appropriate chart for your system voltage and number of turbines and select
the wire size.
A. 24V systems, RVV / Metric wire size
6 Debug and Test
The operation of wind turbine system should be debugged after Installation, the requirements
are as follows:
6.1 Make sure the functions of controller meet the requirements; the specification of control-
ler is matched with voltage and current of battery, solar panel, wind turbine and loads;
6.2 Wiring is in strict accordance with wiring requirements of controller. Firstly, connect to
battery and dumper, and then connect to small wind turbine and solar panel, at last connect
to load; take down connection in the reverse order.
Positive and negative pole of the battery, solar panel can not be reversed and short-circuited;

6.3 The wire leads of wind turbine and connection wires of battery should refer to wire
requirement and regulations:
6.4 Please read carefully about controller instructions to set the functions after the completion
of system wiring, such as model selection and regular time setting:
6.5 PV charging debug: in the light condition (output voltage of solar panel is greater than that
of battery), the controller's PV indicator should be working (normal on or linking), measure
output current by DC clamp meter, the current size depends on illumination intensity and
battery capacity;
6.6 Wind turbine charging debug: wind turbine operation is normal or not when it is windy,
while reach or exceed cut-in wind speed, the controllers wind turbine indicator should be
working (normal on or blinking), measure output current by AC clamp meter, the current size
depends on wind speed and battery capacity:
6.7 Light-control function debug: measure battery voltage by multimetre to ensure battery
voltage is higher than over discharge recovery voltage, then set to light-control mode, discon-
nect any wire of solar panel from controler, several minutes later, observe whether the light of
loads is on or not, it is normal it the light is on. Then connect the solar panel wire with control-
ler again. the load output is cut off a few minutes later and the light goes out:
6.8 Time-control function debug: ensure battery voltage is higher than over discharge recov-
ery voltage, observe whether the lighting time of load output light is the same as that of
setting.
7 Maintenance

8 Trouble Shooting
8.1 Wind turbine’s abnormal vibration
Wind turbine vibration ia mainly caused by the following reasons:
1. Guy rope is loose and needs to be tightened;
2. The blades mounting bolts on are loose and need to be tightened;
3. The surface of blades freeze and needs to be removed;
4. The blades have been distorted, detected and need to be replaced by contact of supplier.
CAUTION: Turbine operation should be stopped as soon as abnormal vibration happened, and then
solve problems.
8.2 Abnormal noise
Besides wind turbine running well creates noise, it is probably cause by friction between rotor
and stator, bearing damaged, in case of these situations, please contact supplier to solve
problems.
8.3 Rotational speed dramatically decreases
Wind turbine rotational speed dramatically decreases under heavy wind condition, which can
be mainly divided into normal deceleration and abnormal deceleration:
1. Turbine normal deceleration ia mainly due to wind turbine over-voltage protection, dump
load, electromagnetic braking and normal short circuit, which la wind turbine regular work;
2. Turbine abnormal deceleration ia mainly due to friction between rotor ans stator, bearing
damaged, generator burned, in case of these situations, please contact supplier to solve
problems.
8.4 Wind Turbine lnsensitive to Adjust Blades Direction
GE wind turbine mainly adopts tail yaw to adjust the blades direction, if it is not sensitive to
adjust blades direction, which is because the turbine alternator shaft is damaged, the tower is
out at vertical, in case of these situations, the shaft should be replaced and tower verticality
must be adjusted.
8.5 Generator Abnormal ac Output
Generator abnormal AC output mainly is divided into:
1. Generator output voltage is low, which is due to low wind speed or long connection line,
small wire size results in high pressure drop, therefore, selection of wire size should refer to
wire regulations and requirements.
2. Generator three-phase output voltage is imbalanced. Voltage unbalanced rate shall not
exceed 10% (same wind speed or rotational speed) in accordance with related national stan-
dards, if exceeded, the generator fails, please contact supplier to solve problems.
3. Generator has no output voltage under heavy condition, check whether generator is normal
short-circuited or not and three-phase resistance values are balanced or not (uncharged
operation), if imbalanced, the generator fails, please contact supplier to solve problems.
8.6 Generator has AC output but no DC output
Off-grid wind turbine charges battery, wind turbine transfers AC to DC by controller, the DC
voltage must be higher than battery voltage, or turbine will not generate power.
If AC input voltage of the generator is normal (voltage higher than battery voltage after rectifi-
cation) while there is no current display on DC terminal, check whether the controller's wind
turbine Indicator work or not (blinking), connection is normal or not, connection terminals are
burned or not, fuses are burned out or not etc. Analyze these situations and get rid of the
troubles. In the event of burning of controller, please contact supplier to solve problems.

8.7 Solar output voltage too low or no output in wind and solar hybrid system
Check whether solar panel lead is short circuit. circuit break. open circuit or not.
8.8 Light source is not on in wind and solar hybrid system
This situation is mainly cause by:
1. Light source is damaged and need to be replaced;
2. Battery is under voltage, controller does not supply power, which is system normal protec-
tion;
3. Controller is burned out and needs to be replaced;
4. The mode setting on the controller is not correct and needs to be reset according to
controller manual.
8.9 Wind turbine does not charge battery
This situation is mainly cursed by:
1. Wind speed is too small to reach cut in state, output DC voltage of wind turbine is lower
than battery voltage;
2. Type ot battery is not matched with controller, battery should be replaced (commonly use
lead acid battery);
3. Burning of controller results in not charging battery, controller should be replaced;
4. Battery is fully charged, controller is over-voltage protection.
