Hi Matt, I have a very similar (maybe identical) problem with a
Whisper 200 that I've been trying to solve for several weeks. When
you say that it's not performing what exactly do you mean?
<div><br>
</div>
<div>My problem surfaced following a lightning storm and
everything pointed to the controller. I replaced the controller
with a Clipper & Classic. The turbine still just spins
slowly as if the brake switch was on and only ramps up when
leads are removed to the controller. I've double checked the
wiring, dropped the turbine and checked the brushes, stator,
connections etc. everything checks out. The batteries are weak
but still showing acceptable voltage above 48v. I'm also at a
loss. I've had a couple of discussions with the guys at
renewable energy supplies and they seem to be knowledgeable but
I still can't sort it out. Anyway maybe give these guys a call: <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://renewableenergysupplies.net/index.html" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small; background-color:

<div><br>
</div>
<div>Will be interested to hear how you make out.</div>

<br>
My line to line voltage measurements are the same between
the three phases. However, my line to ground measurements
are consistent across only two of the phase-ground
combinations. The third phase appears to be shorting to
ground.<br>
<br>
I had the tower down and took the machine off to check the
split bolt connections at the top of the tower for
wear/rubbing. The down tower wiring checks out. I opened
the wire access on the machine to double check wire
insulation and the wire nut connections. I unbolted the
slip rings and checked for any sign of a smoking gun there.
Nothing jumped out at me during the inspection and I'm
curious if it might be in the spinner assembly.<br>
<br>
With no tech support to turn to I am hoping that someone in
the Wrench community might have had a similiar conundrum at
one time. I'd appreciate hearing from you if you have.<br>
<br>
Many thanks in advance. <br>
