To connect the electrical components, please follow these steps:




The electrics should be installed by persons competent in mains voltage
wiring. This system operates on a switched neutral basis. Neutral and phase
connections to the load elements should be treated as live at all times!

1. Install the control box (A) in a convenient location that is protected from rain and

sun. This may be either in a powerhouse along with the turbine or else in a house
at the user’s end.


2. Earth-bond (ground) PowerPal. Do this by attaching one end of a suitable length

of wire to PowerPal and the other end to a metal object or metal stake in the
ground nearby PowerPal. Although the risk of electric shock is already low, this
earth-bonding is still best practice.


3. Connect the generator to the control box (B). All wiring from the generator to the

control box, from the control box to the user load and from the control box to the
ballast load should be done using insulated multistrand copper wire, the size of
which is given in the Technical Specifications part of this manual. The following
wiring diagram applies:
