Alternative Energy Systems Installer Lab
This is a complete practical laboratory that provides all the resources needed to train technicians who will work on the installation of alternative energy power generation systems. These include:
- Solar PV
- Solar Water (Tube Collector)
- Wind Power
We provide all the tools and equipment that are used by professionals in this rapidly growing field as well as typical solar PV and wind power generation and control systems.
Model buildings are provided to give the trainees the opportunity to carryout installations in just the same way that they would on a customer’s site.
To help instructors deliver the fundamental knowledge and understanding of the operation of both solar PV and wind power, we also include two of our PTSS Simulators.
Typical solar PV and wind turbine kits for installation practice:
Solar PV
- Grid tie inverter for solar PV Panels
- Three high-performance 235W Solar PV panels
- MC4 Connectors
- 20 Meters of premium solar cable
- Mounting kit and fixings
Wind Turbine
- 48Volt 1kW Wind turbine
- Grid tie inverter
- Stop switch
- PC Link cable and software
- Wind Turbine Tower Kit
- Mounting kit and fixings
We also include a Tube Collector Solar Water Heating System demonstration stand. This allows the Instructor to demonstrate the operation of a different solar energy technology.
Trainees are able to use the stand to investigate the operation of the system and its electronic control system.
