Solution
Check wiring.
Disconnect wind turbine
phases from the
regulator. If this is not
turning freely, the
problem could be the
wiring. Check possible
joins in the wiring. If the
problem persists, contact
your supplier.
Disconnect the wind
turbine phases from the
regulator. If this turns
freely, its regulator could
be malfunctioning.
Contact your supplier.
Check battery voltage is
correct.
Check there is voltage in
the input to the wind
turbine and regulator. If
there is no voltage,
check wiring.
Functioning correctly.
