You need to contact your ESP to find out their requirements for a parallel generator (this is when you are both
the producer and consumer of electricity). For everyone's protections some grid inter tie control may be
required. You may be required to install a locking disconnect switch for the wind turbine next to your
kilowatt-hour meter. We will supply a block diagram of the major system components. An electrical schematic
showing how your turbine is connected, depending on local condition can be added by your contractor. Also,
the ESP may ask you to carry liability insurance. This can be added to your homeowners policy.

These turbines must be connected to an electric utility grid. A significant advantage of this
connection can be a special metering and billing arrangement called net metering with
your Electric Service Provider (ESP). If your ESP approves this, net metering is the way in
which you sell your extra power to the ESP. When your turbine produces more electricity
than you need, the excess flows to the grid and turns your meter backwards. This et
(subtracting from your usage) metering allows you to get retail value for some if not all, of
the electricity your turbine produces. Most ESPs will buy your excess power, but the rates
vary by location.
