Off-grid Wind Power System
Off-Grid Wind Turbine System: 1) wind turbine on a tower
2) wind turbine charge controlling system 3) battery bank to store a reserve
of energy to be used by the home 4) inverter to convert battery electric to
household power. A basic wind power system will consist of:
- Wind turbine on top of a tower (1) that is wired down to a control box (2) that regulates the charging of a large deep cycle battery bank (3).
- An inverter (4) which draws electricty from the battery bank and converts to normal household electricity (AC) and feeds the appliances in the home with power as needed.
- Various safety devices like fuses, breakers and lightning arrestors (not shown in diagram).
