Hi All, I'm having an issue with my F&P Generator. i have wired it so that it is in the star configuration and have the 3 phase cables running to a rectifier. The issue i'm having is that on the 3 phase side of the rectifier i'm getting 18+ volts easily when spun by hand, however on the DC side of the rectifier i'm barely getting 1 volt. I have tried 2 rectifiers and both have the same issue. any ideas? this is my first wind generator :) Thanks |

Are you setting your meter to read DC volts on the rectifier output? Glenn The best time to plant a tree was twenty years ago, the second best time is right now. JAQ |
