* Survival wind speed means that the wind turbine will survive at 112 mph
(50 m/s) when the Manual stop switch is turned on. Exceeding this will
result in wind turbine failure and collapse.
2.2 Performance
The following power curve shows the performance you should expect from
your wind turbine. During smooth, steady wind speed, you can expect to see
output resembling the curve as illustrated below. To convert between power
and current use the following formula:
