Good morning to all,
They are recently in the field of renewable sources and, in particular, miniheolic.
I am deepening the logic of operation of a mini wind system (to have an idea, let's talk about powers that in my case go from 1.0 to 5.0 kw) with specific attention to the electrical part of the various components that constitute the system itself.
the global chain of the plant includes:
- three-phase permanent magnet electric generator;
- controller/dryer;
- dump load;
- inverter;
- utilities.
My doubt is about the dump load.
the fact that in it is deviated the possible excess current to be dissipated under heat for obvious reasons of safety, I wondered what happens in the meantime in the remaining part of the plant, and in particular in the generator.
In other words, the dump load is a simple load that throws away current to save the plant or, with its ohmic resistance value, creates a current such as to create a situation similar to a short circuit that stops the generator?
apologies for any incorrect terminology, I kindly wait for more explanations about it.
thanks to all in advance
