WINDY BOY PROTECTION BOX

Optimal Protection for Small Wind Power Plants

The Windy Boy Protection Box can be two things at once: it is a rectifier and surge voltage protector in one.

It is delivered as turnkey unit and can be used with nearly all types of generators in various power classes. Thus not only is it suitable for operation with wind power plants: it also provides the optimum link between permanent generators and inverters.
