<![CDATA[The use of electrical energy is getting bigger along with the increasing population growth and variousfacilities that depend on electrical energy. However, the availability of electricity from PLN is notsufficient to meet the needs of the Indonesian people. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct researchon the utilization of potential renewable energy sources which are widely owned by our country,Indonesia, one of which is river flow and irrigation canals. For this solution, a PLTMH (Micro HydroPower Plant) is made, a small-scale power plant that uses hydropower as its energy source. Thepurpose of this study was to determine the performance characteristics of the prototype Snail-Lieturbine at MHP. The research method used is first to look for data by studying literature related toMHP and existing Micro Hydro Power Plant prototypes, secondly collecting data by observing anddirectly testing the parameters on the prototype of the Power Plant. Micro Hydro Power. This researchwas conducted to determine the characteristics of the Snail-Lie turbine prototype at a Micro HydroPower Plant, namely by measuring parameters based on the angle of the nozzle and nozzle armssuch as the turbine rotational speed, the rotational speed of the generator produced by the turbine,the resulting current and voltage then calculating the power from the turbine which has the highestrotating speed. The conclusion that can be drawn from the results of the measurement of theparameters is that the Snail-Lie type turbine the larger the nozzle arm angle, the faster the rotationspeed of the turbine and generator. The faster the speed of the turbine, the greater the current andvoltage generated. The faster the rotation speed of the turbine, the greater the torque produced.]]>
