It's History is that 22 years ago it was removed from the Telephone exchange that it powered (remote location, off the grid) and it fell damaging the blades. The entire unit was overhauled and a new set of blades was supplied as well as a new hub. I purchased this unit from a chap that was not on the grid and had purchased it 21 years ago with the intention of putting it up. He sold it to me 1 year ago when he connected to the grid. At that time he told me it was un-usual in that it had 4 blades and not 3. He also said there were a small number of 4 blade units made for lower wind areas. The generator looks like the one in the photo and it seems in excellent condition. If you want I can get the old Fluke out and make some measurements for comparison?
