ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
Recommendations for electrical connections :
Please consult local/national safety rules before installation.
All electric cables must be carefully insulated. For maximum protection, cover the cables with
electrical cable sheaths.
WARNING : CONNECTIONS MUST BE INSPECTED REGULARLY TO DETECT SIGNS OF
CORROSION AND CLEANED WHEN NECESSARY. DAMAGED OR CORRODED
CONNECTIONS LEAD TO A SIGNIFICANT DROP IN PRODUCTION
.
Wiring principle
Three
-
phase wiring of the hydrogenerator
WARNING : ALWAYS PLACE THE HYDROGENERATOR IN THE LIFTED POSITION
BEFORE STARTING WORK ON IT.
The hydrogenerator is fitted with a small diameter electrical cable of sufficient length to pass
through the transom. This is a three
-
phase cable.
§
We recommend using the connection kit with a cable and waterproof power socket.
(Ref. PL
-
04).
§
From here, use a three
-
phase cable to connect the hydrogenerator to the converter. If the
length of this cable is less than 10 metres, use a 3 x 1.5 mm
2
section. Above 10 metres, use
a 3 x 2.5 mm
2
section.
§
The converter is connected using the connector kit provided. Connect the 3 phases on one of
the premounted plugs supplied (Ref. CA
-
03). There is no importance in the connection
arrangement of the 3 other wires (BROWN, ORANGE, RED). The black wire must not be
connected, it is used to wire a solar panel (please see below). You can connect them with for
example WAGO 222 connectors. See the assembly instructions below.
