Hello all, I am a new member, my background is in electrical engineering. I have recently purchased a rural property in the High country of North East Victoria, Australia. There is no power on the property. The property has a spring fed dam which in summer months, water flows at about 1 litre per second and in winter months at 15 litres per second. From the spring fed dam to the lower part of the property which is located about 150 meters away the head is 33 meters. I'm looking at installing piping from the spring fed dam to a hydro generator of approx 4 Kw, 3 phase power 415Volt, 50 Hz. I will use automation to switch the generator off and on depending of the water level of the dam. The electrical power generated will be rectified to DC to charge batteries and then inverters used to convert to household power for continual use. The excess electrical energy will be used to pump water to higher levels of the property. I can take care of the batteries, chargers, inverters and pump but I need some assistance on selecting a hydro generator that can be switched on and off regularly and piping installation. Can someone recommend a suitable system that I can purchase
