6. Once the glue is set the turbine can be started. Fill the forebay and allow the water

to flow freely into the penstock. The turbine runner will rotate and spent water will

flow out in front of the turbine stand (into an escape drain). An alternative is to allow

the water to escape through the floor of a purpose-built platform. Once the water is

flowing freely the electrical setup may begin.

7. Earth-bond (ground) PowerPal. Do this by attaching one end of a suitable length of

0.75 sq.mm/A wire to PowerPal and the other end to a metal object or metal stake in

the ground nearby PowerPal. Although the risk of electric shock is already low, this

earth-bonding is still best practice.

8. Run the required length of two-strand, jacketed electrical cable from PowerPal to

your house etc. Use 3.75 Ampere wire (0.75 sq. mm / Amp) for both MHG-200 and

MHG-500 models. This is thicker than is required but thinner wires are more fragile.

Attach the electrical cable to the red and black connecting points on the PowerPal

generator.

Do not allow electrical contacts to become wet. Use dry hands. Beware of

electrocution.

9. Install the electronic load controller (ELC) in a dry place inside the house (or next

to the generator) and connect the ELC's two red wires to the end of the electrical

cable to the generator.

10. Place the dummy load (immersion heater) attached to the white cable into a water

tank of minimum volume 50 litres. The tank should be made of non-conductive

material and the dummy load should be fully immersed. The ELC is always

positioned between the generator and any circuit breaker. Check all the connections

again.

11. Observe the meter to check the operational state of the ELC - is the voltage at

220V or 110V (depending on your country) when the water is let into the turbine? If

the voltage still increases, then stop and check the connections, and the voltmeter.

Adjust the potentiometer on the circuit board (as in photograph) slowly until the

voltmeter reads 220V or 110V.
