AIR can produce high amperages. Protect your turbine with fuses or circuit
breakers. Wire with an appropriate size “slow-blow” fuse or circuit break-
er between AIR and the baeries. If a stop switch is used, the fuse or cir-
cuit breaker should be placed between the switch and the baeries.
Recommended Sizes for Circuit Breakers or Slow-Blow Fuses are detailed
on Technical Specicaons page. Install in accordance with CEC and NEC.
Circuit Breakers are available from Primus Wind Power.

Deep cycle baeries are required. Types include: ooded lead acid,
absorbed glass mat (AGM), gel cell, NiCad and Lithium Ion baeries. See
simple Sizing Tips for guidelines on baery sizing.
Fig. 15 Ammeter (Amp Meter)
NOTE: An oponal ammeter (somemes called an Amp Meter) is an excellent addion to any system. It allows you to monitor the instantaneous current
output of your turbine. IMPORTANT: Place it between your turbine and the baery on the posive lead.
NOTE: Primus Wind Power Inc. oers a combinaon of the above in the “Wind Control Panel” (WCP), available in both analog and digital versions. These
products are designed with a compact surface mount panel and oponal weather resistant enclosure. Th analog and digital control panels contain the stop
switch, circuit breaker and ammeter (Amp Meter). See Appendix C at the back of the owner’s manual for further details.
NOTE: For more informaon see:

IMPORTANT: Never use “automove” baeries or
any baery other than “deep-cycle” baeries!
