Re: Wind Turbine & Enphase IQ7 system integration success
As expected, the IQ7 just pulls power from the batteries until the low voltage cutoff disconnects the batteries from the circuit. Stubbornly, there was no wind to speak of yesterday. Weathermen and t…1 · -
Re: Wind Turbine & Enphase IQ7 system integration success
In summary: If you use batteries instead of the super capacitors, the system will run fine. You'll need a low voltage cutoff for the battery part and you don't need the switching power supply at the …1 · -
Re: Not sure I've got an inline ammeter hooked up correctly. Not getting the reading I wanted
I use one of those internal shunts on the wind turbine on my system. To check accuracy (assuming your voltmeter is accurate) put the volt meter in series with that meter on the panel side (Input) and…1 · -
Re: Wind Turbine & Enphase IQ7 system integration success
To update the buck power supply trials, I now have a 30-96v power supply rated at 400W or so. It seems to be able to handle the turbine. We haven't had a big wind storm yet and I'll use it the next t…1 · -
Re: Wind Turbine & Enphase IQ7 system integration success
Happy New Year everyone! Here's your New Year's present... I've updated the design to include the dump load in case I lose grid power. It's been running flawlessly now for about a month. I don't have…1 ·
