Abstract
Example embodiments are directed to fluid turbines that include a turbine shroud and a rotor assembly disposed within the turbine shroud. The rotor assembly includes a nacelle pivotally engageable with a tower structure and a slip ring disposed within the nacelle. The slip ring electrically connects one or more cables in the nacelle to one or more cables in the tower structure. The slip ring is engaged with the nacelle by a mounting apparatus which allows movement of the slip ring along at least one of an x-axis, a y-axis and a z-axis. Example embodiments are further directed to methods of maintaining untwisted electric cables in a fluid turbine.
