Hello.
I am trying to make alive 18kW asynchronus wind turbine. It is here in eastern Ireland but not moving since 10 years and never connected ! (cables discovered ). We were able to grease main bearings and rotate rotor - sucess !
but ...
I have power on to yaw motor and nothing ... stuck (you can hear it buzzing when power on). I have climbed turbine yeasterday and I can see no YAW BEARING !
here is link to pictures (https://plus.google.com/photos/116413123506663905974/albums/6053775852843027953) on the last few you can see Yaw sprockets but I just do not know how this can move... (looks like turbine head is ended with big sprocket what is just bolted to top flange of the mast ).
