11.6 Electrical system
Please first stop the SILENTWIND generator so that all wires carry no voltage. Check
if all connections are properly fixed and not corroded. If corroded they must be
removed and treated with contact spray. Give special attention to the battery
connections: they must be clean and greased with vaseline. Check the battery in line
with the instructions of the producer and (if necessary) refill with destilled water. In
the case that more than one battery is used check if all batteries have the same
capacity and state of charge.
