3 Phase map - any bright sparks?

[Shan Rush]

I am undertaking some research on the optimal potential of wind turbines in the UK. I am trying to find out where there is 3 Phase power. I am a wildlife scientist based in South Africa and have dangerously little knowledge of electricity so I would appreciate ANY guidance. Thanks Shan

all i can say is that most areas of the UK have 415V ( nominally 400V ) 3 phase with the exception of some remote rural areas.

The "optimal potential" of wind turbines in this country is to make certain landowners, businessmen and politicians very wealthy.

The future potential of the damned things is to keep the scrap men gainfully employed for however long it takes to chop them up for scrap after it's finally been realised just how useless these things are.

I hope this helps with your research !!!

Hmmmm....

yep, a complete epic fail. disastrous impact on the environment, those in the sea might be useful in the future, though. once decommissioned, can be used a tie-up for boat whilst diving.

Converting wind turbine towers to Living accomodation will catch on in about 30 years

I'm willing to bet the 'farms' conveniently end up as brown field sites after there 25.....week, life spans. New ones opposite my current lodgings have broken down on a near daily basis

They need a constant reliable source of wind and that's why they should have been erected around Westminster.
