My Wind Turbine build | My solar air heaters | My drain water heat exchanger | My solar setup | My biofuel experiments | My wind turbine | My lighting projects | Links to information | Home | This page contains information and photos about the buildup and installation of my small wind turbine. In this group of photos I am making up the cables that will go down the pole. These are made of #6AWG welding cable which is very flexible. The first picture is the cables laid out on the floor. The second shows me applying some Deoxit to the end of the wire. I also applied it to the connector. Third photo is application of some Loctite thread locker to the connector screw to insure it does not come loose. The fourth picture is the completed connection with heatshrink tubing applied. The fifth picture is of the completed set of cables. This next group of pictures shows some of the tower details. The first picture is a guy wire attached to the ground anchor
