Lets put mains on to the pins of a plug!
He's generating low voltage 3 phase AC from a water powered turbine, rectifying it to 24V DC and then using a inverter to generate 110V AC (this is the USA). This is then wired to a standard USA plug which he plugs into a wall socket - almost the equivalent of having an extension lead with a main plug on each end https://youtu.be/V82SVeVXKcA?t=450 He doesn't know much about electricity but his mate wired it to "code". He uses a shop vac to start his generator by introducing a vacuum in the pipe which is then maintained allowing water to flow faster than it would with just a simple syphon arrangement. -- mailto : news {at} admac {dot} myzen {dot} co {dot} uk |
