Land, sky and wind... 400W Wind Turbine Generator Pros and Cons
Pros of Wind Turbine Genrator:
- Zero gas emission
- It can provide high wattage in areas with strong wind
- does not generate poluttion
- the wind energy is permanent and will exist even there is no sun
- it is available around the globe
Cons of Wind Turbine Genrator:
- There are day's when wind is not strong enough to supply energy.
- It is not silent and quite once running.
- The structure of wind turbine is huge and bulky.
- Wind energy is dependent on location and topography
- Can endanger wildlife and birds
- Prone to lightning strike.
Below is the picture of 400/600w 12/24v HAWT wind turbine.
This 12v wind turbine is a HAWT (horizontal Axis Wind Turbine).
You can view the video of the turbine in action.
I will share you setup instruction later on how to install a wind turbine generator.
Materials:
- 2 inch GI Pipe
- 2 inch to 1 1.2 GI Pipe reducer
- outdoor grade wiring
- steel wires
- steel wire tensioner(adjusters)
- hybrid wind/solar charge controller
Please check my post net week for step by step instruction on how to install a wind turbine for your home.
How to Setup Electric Fence for Grazelands
Materials:
Steps on how to setup solar/battery feed electric fence:
1. Determine what kind of animals will dwell inside your fenced property.
2. Prepare the lot and place your fencing poles. The height of fencing poles depends on the kind of animals. For goat, chicken, sheep (3 feet smaller poles) while for horses, cattle's, cows (4-5 feet strong poles).
3. Attached iron wire to poles and makes sure the insulator was attached as well.
4.Once you you are done enclosing your property you may begin erecting your grounding rod. The length of grounding bar depends on the area of your property. For larger properties, the grounding pole must be erected 3-4 feet below the ground.
5.Connect you solar panel, battery and charge controller accordingly.
6. Once all set, connect the Fence Energizer (+) positive wire tor your battery
7. The fence charger blinks every second. The blinking status shows that the fence energizer is working 100%
8. Check your entire property fencing line. If you are hearing tickling sound then your fencing wire is touching the ground. Fix it by adding insulator.
Below is my solar electric fencing setup with additional purpose. I use my solar fencing setup to power my 12v motion sensor gate light, grotto lighting and 12v water pump for garden fountain.
Happy and healthy goats,Nuvian, and Boer goats soon.
