[RE-wrenches] Wind Turbine recommendations; 24v battery charging

Hi all! Can I please get your recommendations for a turbine upgrade. Currently there is a 1.5 tower we can utilize. There was a Lakota on site but I have it on the bench and will not recommend fixing it or replacing it with the like. So, 3 phase wiring is in place. P.S. I don't think the

[RE-wrenches] Mouse pee in the SW

Friends: I had a mouse take up residency in an SW inverter (SW4024). It peed on the top circuit board and chewed on one wire, at least that we found. We have had this happen before and solved the problem by cleaning and drying. This time the mouse pee was minimal and cleaned off easily and

Re: [RE-wrenches] Mouse pee in the SW

Hi William, Fluid intrusion can be very problematic and lead to highly erratic behavior, if not a complete shutdown. If an IC was internally damaged by moisture allowing for an undesirable current path, then a chipset may solve the issue. It may be a challenge to clean sufficiently unless you

Re: [RE-wrenches] Mouse pee in the SW

William, I don't have a definitive answer, but I doubt it's either display or chipset; more likely in the boards. The chips are EEPROMs that contain programming for the firmware; unless there's a bad socket connection from the pee, they won't be affected. The

Re: [RE-wrenches] Mouse pee in the SW

William, Urine is conductive, and apparently has formed some unwanted electrical pathways between components. This conductivity could easily continue after the board has dried due to humidity in the air. If the need is dire, you can try the following: You will need two 9 x 12 ceramic (Pyrex
