How Do You Tie Multiply Wind Generators Together?
One method of generating more power with wind turbine systems is tying together multiple wind generators. The principle of connecting the direct current output of multiple wind generators together is similar to that of connecting multiple solar panels together. Doing so requires wiring the multiple outputs in a parallel electric circuit. The advantage to wiring turbines in parallel is that doing so produces an additive effect. While voltage remains the same the current increases with each additional turbine. In effect it results in the creation of a mini wind farm. Install a combiner electrical box specifically designed for use with wind energy at a convenient location. Combiner boxes are intended for installations with more than one wind generator and are used to bring together the outputs of multiple generators by combining them in a parallel circuit. Run electrical wiring from wind generators to the combiner box. Use RHW-2 10 AWG 1 electrical wire as a minimum unless a specific cond
