Summary edit

Description
English: Interior of the hub of Turbine No 3. Here is a rare view that the public will never see of the inside of the hub which is now attached and working 60 metres from the ground at Turbine Tower No 3

For the more technical minded, the equipment inside is the pitch system for controlling the angle of the three blades; this consists of three independent pitch gears driven by the blue electrical motors. The hub is made of cast iron and weighs 23 tons. The small hatch at the rear on the right is the only way to access this compartment now that the hub is fitted to the nacelle on top of the tower see 696963
