Cosa tratta questo video
The crew of KALLI installs two additional 440-watt Canadian Solar panels to their existing array while docked in Darwin, Australia.0:40 To mount the panels, they purchase 25mm square aluminum tubing with 3mm wall thickness, cutting it to size to fit the stern arch where a wind generator was previously located.2:30 Because the original mounting holes from the wind generator do not align perfectly, the crew uses a tape measure to square the new bars and secure them parallel to the existing structure.9:28 Routing the wiring requires feeding cables through the boat’s hull, which involves drilling through three internal layers of the engine room bulkhead.17:23 The installation process is interrupted by a heavy rainstorm, which the crew uses to collect fresh water.14:30 After finalizing the wiring and sealing the hatches with silicone, the panels are bolted into place.23:50 The upgrade brings the total solar capacity to six 440-watt panels.33:28
