Can micro wind turbine be monitored?

Q&A and troubleshooting

Hello,

Im designing a grid connected, three phase system with 3x Quattro II, DC coupled solar, and an AC coupled wind turbine.

As far as I can tell there’s no way for the Victron system to talk to the wind turbine as it does with PV inverters (for example frequency shifting to shut down production when batteries are full)

  • Can I use an AC current clamp to monitor the output of the wind turbine?
  • Would the wind turbine be better connected to the AC Output side of the Victron system? It would then power loads and charge the batteries, once they are full it would export to the grid?

Thanks!

Hi please post a link to the turbine manufacture and i will have a look.
