Safety Advisory
Weaver Wind Energy turbines should be installed and maintained by trained personnel only. Misuse or
mishandling of the turbine or tower could result in serious injury or death.
Please do not attempt to service the turbine yourself! If you observe something that is of concern to
you, please refer to the Troubleshooting section on page 11, and contact Weaver Wind Energy or our
local representative if action is needed.
The following symbols have been included at certain places in the manual, to highlight the need for
safety precautions. Please read and heed the safety notes:
DANGER! Represents a risk of injury or death for personnel, customers, or others nearby.
WARNING! Represents a risk of damage to the product.
Climbing Safety
During times when installation or service personnel must climb the tower, individuals who are not
professionally trained in the work being performed should stay away from the tower if at all possible.
Talk with the personnel who are inspecting, installing, or servicing the turbine to determine where
onlookers may stay to safely watch the process. If you are near the tower, you are advised to wear a
hard hat for extra protection. Please discuss requirements for safety equipment such as hard hats with
your service personnel before going to watch.
Electrical Safety
Several electrical devices will be installed for power conditioning and control of your turbine. The high
voltage electronic equipment in these devices is shielded by enclosures for your safety. You should
never open the cover to any of these devices.
DANGER! Opening the covers of the electrical devices installed with your wind turbine could lead
to electrocution! Do not open them unless you are trained as an electrician or a wind turbine installer
and have taken the proper precautions!
The only electrical device in the wind turbine system that a homeowner may be permitted to open is the
Main Breaker Panel in your home. A breaker switch to turn the wind turbine system “on” or “off” will be
installed in the Main Breaker Panel. This switch should always be “on.” If that breaker has tripped to
“off,” you should immediately contact Weaver Wind Energy or our local representative.
WARNING! Turning “off” the Wind Turbine System during operation can lead to permanent
damage and will void the warranty if done without explicit instructions by a Weaver Wind employee!
You must never turn the breaker switch for the wind turbine system “off” without explicit instructions to
do so from an employee of Weaver Wind Energy or our local representative. Turning “off” the turbine
system without knowledge of the electrical system can lead to permanent damage to the wind turbine.

The Turbine System
The turbine system consists of many interrelated components that work together to bring wind energy
to the home. The Weaver 5kW is intended to operate on the demand side of the meter, offsetting the
consumer’s electrical usage, and during periods of high production or low demand, returning power to
the grid. The figure below shows the major components of the turbine and the control system.
Figure 1: Major turbine components
Turbine Components
The image above shows the turbine, and the chart at the top right of the image identifies the major
components of the turbine. The sections below describe the functioning of these components within the
turbine system.
Rotor and Alternator
The rotor (1) is made up of three blades in a rotating hub. The blades are made of a composite fiberglass
and act to capture the energy from moving air masses and translate it into rotational energy. They act in
a similar fashion to wings on airplanes, generating a force called “lift” which causes them to rotate.
The alternator (2) transforms the rotating mechanical energy of the blades into electrical energy. When
the rotor spins, it causes a shaft to rotate within the alternator, which moves a set of permanent
magnets past coils of wire. The interaction of the permanent magnets with the coils produces current
5
Weaver Wind Energy 5 kW Owner’s Manual
and voltage, which are the two ingredients that make electrical power. The current and voltage are
transported through wires to the power conditioning equipment on the ground. The alternator is
designed to produce power at lower rotational speeds than the average generator (between 30320rpm), which enables the turbine to safely operate without excessive wear.
Nacelle, Frame and Tail
The frame (3) is the mounting point for the alternator and supports the nacelle (4), which houses the tail
furling mechanism, fail-safe brake, and other electrical connections. The electronics in the nacelle are
connected to the electronics on the ground through a slip ring, which maintains the connections as the
turbine turns to face the rotor into the wind. The frame rotates on a set of “yaw bearings,” which allow
the turbine to face the rotor into the wind.
Under normal operating conditions, the tail (5) is designed to keep the turbine blades pointed into the
wind, but when the wind becomes too strong, the tail is designed to fold, turning the blades out of the
direction of the oncoming wind and allowing the rotor to slow down. The process of turning the rotor
out of the direction of the wind is called “furling.” Furling prevents damage to the turbine system by
keeping the rotor from spinning too fast, while still allowing power to be produced.
Digital Controller
The Weaver 5kW control system is the first of its kind in the small wind industry. The Weaver Controller
(shown in Figure 2 below) is the brains of the turbine system. The Controller monitors the condition of
Figure 2: Electrical equipment for turbine control and power conditioning
6
Weaver Wind Energy 5 kW Owner’s Manual
the turbine and grid and decides when to furl or shut down the system to prevent damage during high
wind events. These decisions are made based on data from several sensors, including the Anemometer
(shown in Figure 2), which is a wind speed sensor that is installed on the tower and transmits data
wirelessly back to the controller through the Antenna (Figure 2). The Weaver Controller is also capable
of sending data over the internet through a local computer to provide real time operating information to
the home owner, and remote diagnostic capabilities for technicians.
Power Converter
The power from the turbine is in the form of 3-phase “wild” AC power. This means that the power being
produced by the turbine does not yet have the voltage and current waveform required in order for it to
be used directly in your house or exported to the power grid. Before being used, it must go through two
steps to be converted into the appropriate type of power.
The first step is to change it to DC power. This simplifies the power by taking away the characteristic of
frequency, and enables the power to be given whatever frequency is desired in the next step. The
turbine system uses an AC-to-DC converter called a “rectifier,” which is contained in the Protection
Boxes (see Figure 2) that come with the turbine. In this step, the Protection Boxes also take care of
excess power that might be produced in extreme weather events. This goes through a Diversion Load
(Figure 2), which is like an electric heater and can absorb energy that is too much for the next piece of
equipment that processes the power.
The second step is to change the DC power to 120V, 60Hz AC power that can be used in your home or by
the grid. This is the job of a DC-to-AC converter called an Inverter (Figure 2). The Inverter provided with
the Weaver 5kW turbine can convert up to 10kW of power from DC to AC.
In the event of a grid failure (power outage), the Inverter cannot export power to the grid anymore. In
most setups, this means that the Inverter will turn off and the power produced by the turbine will be
sent to the Diversion Loads for a few seconds, until the Weaver Controller can shut down the turbine.
When the grid is working again, the Controller will wait for 6 minutes and then allow the turbine to start
producing power again (this 6-minute delay period is required by regulations in case of a repeated grid
failure).
Home System and the Grid
This is where the power generated by the turbine is used. It first flows through the house (through your
home’s main Circuit Breaker, as shown in Figure 2), providing energy to any appliances consuming it at
the time. If there is any excess power left over after the home use is accounted for, it is fed backwards
into the grid, turning the meter backwards.

Features
Automated Folding Tail
Many residential wind turbines are designed to furl (turn
the rotor out of the direction of the wind) in high wind
speeds, but the Weaver 5kW takes advantage of a
revolutionary new technology to make furling more
reliable and more effective than ever before. Our
automated folding tail responds to instructions from the
Controller when the wind speed is too high, and rotates
the tail relative to the frame and nacelle, as shown in
Figure 3. The force of the wind pushing against the vane of
the tail then causes the whole turbine to rotate (this is
called “yawing”) until the tail is parallel to the direction of
the wind, and the rotor is facing away from the direction
of the wind, as shown in Figure 4.
The motion of the tail is simple and brief, which greatly
reduces wear on the mechanism compared to other
furling turbines. In
both the folded and
Figure 3: Turbine after tail folds
unfolded positions,
the tail is held in
place by a rugged
locking mechanism
that firmly supports
it against the force
of the wind. This
reduces stress on
the internal parts
and ensures the
Figure 4: Turbine fully furled
long life of the
turbine.
Fail-Safe Electrical Brake
The Weaver 5kW has a built-in fail-safe system, which will shut down the turbine quickly and safely in
the event that power to the turbine is lost. This means that if grid power to the controller is lost due to
cut wires or other inadvertent power interruption, the turbine will automatically shut down to prevent
further damage. In the unfortunate event that this feature must be put into use, the turbine must be
inspected by a professional installer and deemed safe to operate before being placed back into
operation.
This brake is also actuated to stop the turbine in a grid power failure and in very extreme weather. In
those circumstances, it stops the turbine based on a command from the Controller, and the braking is
usually temporary. If the Controller operates the electrical brake and then allows the turbine to spin
again, then the turbine does not have to be inspected. If the Controller operates the electrical brake but
8
Weaver Wind Energy 5 kW Owner’s Manual
does not release it, it means that the event was severe enough to require an inspection. You should
contact Weaver Wind Energy or our local representative in this case.
Redundant Sensors
The Controller makes decisions about when to fold the tail or activate the electrical brake based on its
knowledge about the state of the turbine and the wind. This knowledge comes from a set of sensors
that feed information to the Controller. The turbine will furl or shut down, if necessary, in response to
any of these sensors. Therefore, the system will continue to work even if one or more of the sensors is
not working. This is called “redundancy.”
For instance, if the Anemometer (wind speed sensor) is frozen and cannot sense the wind speed, the
Controller can look at the information provided by its internal rotor speed sensor. Based on the speed of
the rotor, the Controller can determine the wind speed, and decide whether to furl. Even if the wind
speed sensor and the rotor speed sensor do not give any information to the Controller, the voltage
sensor will give the voltage being produced by the alternator, which can be used to determine the wind
speed. The Controller has four separate sensors that provide redundancy.
Active Storm Monitoring
Based on the knowledge that the Controller has about the wind speed, it can “anticipate” when strong
winds, such as from a storm front, are beginning to move through the area, and adjust its furling
behavior accordingly. Using patterns in the wind speed information that is coming from the
Anemometer, the Controller can predict the likelihood that a strong gust will occur during the next
several minutes. If the likelihood of a strong gust is high, then the Controller will adopt a more cautious
approach temporarily. This means that the tail will stay folded for a longer period of time, and wait for
the wind to become smoother and safer for optimal power production.
Quiet Design
The simple design of the Weaver 5kW’s control mechanism makes it much quieter than most furling
turbines of similar size. This is because the furling mechanism has been designed with minimal
complexity, and very few moving parts. The blades and alternator are also designed to be long lasting
and produce minimal noise over the operating range of the turbine. In order to ensure the highest
quality, the blades, alternator, and all other major components are designed and produced in the United
States.
In the unlikely event that you notice any substantial change in the sounds coming from the turbine, you
should notify Weaver Wind Energy to have the cause of the change investigated.

Installation
Installation Instructions
DANGER! Installation of the wind turbine may be performed only by a trained, professional
renewable energy installer! Installation by improperly trained persons could result in serious injury or
death of persons in the vicinity of the turbine, or permanent damage to the turbine or other equipment.
Please refer to the Weaver Wind Energy 5 kW Installation and Maintenance Manual for installation
instructions.
What to Expect
The system will arrive in pieces, including a turbine with the tail and rotor detached, the parts and
hardware for the tail and rotor, and multiple pieces of electronic equipment for controlling the turbine
and processing the power. The tower will typically be shipped directly from the tower manufacturer.
The installation of the system includes several major steps:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
Laying foundations (typically 1-3 days)
Tower installation (typically 1-3 days)
Turbine installation (typically ½ day to 1 day)
Electronics installation (typically 1-3 days)
Electrical inspection (30 minutes-2 hours)
Wire runs (typically 1-3 days)
Commissioning (1 hour)
Some of these tasks may be completed simultaneously by a work crew that is large enough to handle
multiple tasks at one time, thus making the overall installation time 1-3 weeks of work (some spacing is
required between initial work days for foundation-laying and the rest of the installation steps). Your
local installer will schedule these steps with you and hire contractors to pour foundations, drive a crane,
and other relevant tasks. You will need to arrange with your installer how to get the required installation
equipment to the location where the wind turbine will be installed.
Usually, the wind turbine owner is able to be present for the installation activities, if desired, but it is
very important to discuss with the installer prior to installation activities, what will be happening and
how to stay safe.
DANGER! During all installation activities, follow the safety instructions of your installer. In
particular, wear appropriate Personal Protective Equipment and do not stand or sit in locations that are
deemed unsafe by the installer.
The turbine commissioning takes place once all portions of the turbine system have been installed,
connected, and inspected. The installer follows a specific commissioning procedure outlined in the
Weaver Wind Energy 5kW Installation and Maintenance Manual. The installer will monitor the turbine
as it starts to ensure that it is working properly. Once the turbine is commissioned, it is ready to remain
operational and begin producing your power!

Weaver Wind Energy 5 kW Owner’s Manual
Inspection and Maintenance
Maintenance and Inspection Schedule
Inspections should be performed within 45 days of installation, and every 3 years or after severe
weather events. You should arrange with your local installer to come and perform the inspection when
it is necessary. If severe weather events do occur, it is the responsibility of the turbine owner to inform
Weaver Wind Energy or the local installer.
The installer performing the inspection should follow the checklist in Table 1 on the following page
during all such inspections, to ensure that the turbine continues to operate reliably for its intended
lifetime.
DANGER! Inspections are to be performed only by trained personnel following approved
procedures and using proper equipment!

Furling Click Code
When the controller is in “PLC” mode and is automatically controlling the safety systems of the turbine,
it reports the cause of a furl to help maintenance personnel trace the source of any issues related to
furling. Any time the turbine is furled, the controller will emit a clicking sound a certain number of times
and then pause for 3 seconds. A certain number of clicks between pauses indicates a specific reason for
the turbine to be furled. The number of clicks and the reasons for furling are shown in Table 3 on the
next page.
