PROFESSIONAL INSTALLATION required
After following the unpacking procedures included in the wind turbine package, it
is required that only licensed and trained personnel perform the installation and
maintenance of the wind turbine.
In general the installation consists of mounting the turbine on suitable and approved
mounting hardware. The installation procedure include recommendations for the
mounting options. They must be approved and certied by your local Professional
Engineer (PE) and a licensed and trained installer must acquire all the necessary
permits from the local authorities prior to installation.
The following illustration shows the HONEYWELL™ Wind Turbine installation on
a ROOFBOX™ Mount (see details on page 14). The turbine is mounted to the
ROOFBOX™ Mount using a QUADPOD™ Mount (see details on page 14). The
anemometer and the Junction Box are mounted by a certied and trained electrician
to one of the support legs of the QUADPOD™ Mount. Please be aware of the
