SYSTEM ELECTRICAL CONFIGURATION AND WIRING
On- or off-grid electrical system? SETUR turbine can be used in on- and off-grid systems.
If you are able to connect to the utility grid and it is reliable then it is advisable that you choose an on-grid
system without batteries. This will be simpler, cheaper and more environmentally friendly. Batteries need
careful attention, regular maintenance and periodic replacement. Production and disposal of the batteries
hurt environment.
If you are on-grid then order your SETUR turbine with an on-grid inverter to connect to the grid and save
on your electricity bills or maybe even earn substantial amounts of money by selling excess electricity
generated by your SETUR turbine.
ON-GRID
OFF-GRID
Optionally, the SETUR turbine may be equipped with the HYBRID inverter in support of both on- and off-
grid system configurations. This inverter combines a battery charging system, battery inverter, hybrid
inverter, controller and system monitoring solution in one device.
WARNING! An electric shock can be fatal. High danger due to grid voltage and voltage from the
turbine that is operational.
SYSTEM WIRING
Each SETUR-M inverter is equipped with two Power Outlets, North-American 110V-120V and Universal
220V-240V.
To connect the turbine to your house
electric system, the right way is to install a
male power socket in your house and use a
male-to-female power cord. The wrong
way is to plug a male-to-male (plugs on
both ends) power cord into the inverter AC
outlet and any wall outlet in your house.
ATTENTION:
Make sure the wiring matches = hot to hot, neutral to neutral, ground to ground. If you don't
know how to check the wiring, invite a certified electrician.
WARNING:
you must always follow your local code.
Alternatively, in case you don't want to connect the turbine to your house electric system, but rather want
to supply power directly to a few appliances, plug the appliances into the inverter's power outlets. Make
sure their combined power rating doesn't exceed the turbine's rated power.
