Firstly Tom , Forums are not a paid consulting service where you just keep harassing until you get a result, from the barrage of disjointed info and questions you have put up in 4 separate posts and the emails you have also sent it is the same as the last time where here . Clearly write your questions including the relevant information will give the person answering the information required if they decide to answer. From memory , I think the advice last time was to sell what you have bought and cut your losses but you have bought more and still have nothing up producing power , If you think what you are proposing, that is to put up 10kW of wind turbines, I would suspect it has all fallen apart when you started getting tower prices.

Most good Engineers will build you a tower...at a cost. Towers are not things to be taken lightly, a crappy tower of poor dimension could cause damage or fatality and this is something an engineer would take into account and would have to consider taking liability for if the case ever came about. Towers need to conform to structural codes, tower and mast standards and wind loadings etc. For these reasons alone would explain to you why this project may be an expensive exercise. A lot of people build there own towers but you need some sort of knowledge and these are generally guyed. A 50mm water pipe is not going to hold up an 80kg 3kw unit is it? This is why you need to leave this to a professional. Foolproof systems do not take into account the ingenuity of fools. |
