WES30 Electrical



Electrical energy is generated by the generator in the nacelle of the WES30. Cables run from the generator to the control cabinet. The flexible cable loop in the top of the tower is protected from twisting by an anti-twist sensor. When the nacelle has made 3 complete rotations in one direction the control system orders the yaw system to unwind the cables by turning the nacelle 3 times in the other direction.

The control cabinet is positioned in a shed nearby the tower. For safety reasons you have to be able to see the turbine reacting when operating the control panel on the control cabinet door.

The advanced IGBT technology makes the WES30 a relatively easy wind turbine to connect to any kind of grid. Local regulations can make that some components or security devices have to be adapted. Your WES dealer is aware of the specific regulations and restriction from your local electricity company.

Grid companies develop and upgrade their grids all the time, the WES30 control cabinet is designed to deal with this. The maximum power output of the WES30 can be set to a level lower than 250kWatt. This can be handy when your local grid is not strong enough to support the maximum power. Your WES dealer can adjust or remove the limitation on maximum power output of your WES30 once you can use all the electricity yourself or the grid has been improved and is strong enough to support the full power output.
