Do not forget to grease the bearings at the recommended times. Failure to do this
will result in excessive wear on the bearings and shorten their life. Always ensure that
the Electronic Load Controller is set at approximately 110 or 220V, depending on
your country. Otherwise, the life of lights and appliances may be reduced.
• Low frequencies will result if the generator rotor is rotating slower than usual. Low
frequencies may prevent proper functioning of appliances such as televisions and will
harm electric motors. PowerPal is designed to stop working if the rotor speed
becomes too low, as the drag on the rotor becomes too great to sustain its rotation.
This in-built mechanism is there to avoid problems associated with low frequencies.
High frequencies will occur if the rotor is rotating faster than usual. This is due to
either a high head or water flow rate or the use of a small load. It can be corrected by
adjusting the spear valve, or by turning on another appliance to increase the load.
Sustained high frequencies may overheat some electric motors or affect television
picture quality. Light bulbs are not affected by frequency but are affected by voltage.
POWERPAL COMPONENTS
Inside your PowerPal box you will find:
• 1 x generator-turbine assembly
• 1 x penstock adaptor flange
• 1 x electronic load controller
• 1 x replacement bearing seal
• 1 x Guarantee Card
• 1 x this instruction manual.
Please advise immediately if any parts are missing. Complete your Guarantee Card and

The PowerPal system consists of two major components – a hydroelectric generator and
an electronic load controller. Other components are necessary and these can be purchased
locally. The penstock (intake pipe) can be made of PVC plastic (recommended), steel,
reinforced concrete, fired clay water pipe or bamboo. Your PowerPal dealer can advise
you about this.
Therefore, other parts which are not included in the box but which are required to make
PowerPal work are:
• a length of PVC or other pipe.
• electrical wire from generator to house. See the section on 'Technical Specifications'
for the correct wire size.
• household wiring.
These are available from your dealer or local electrical store.
