Abstract:
One of the most critical aspects of wind turbine reliability is the facility’s lighting protection. By increasing height and rated power of wind turbines, the attractiveness of turbines for lightning strikes increases quadratic with height. The most endangered component of the turbine is the rotor with its blades. Usually, the blades are manufactured from glass-fiber material with low electric conductivity. A common lightning protection system for blades consists of several receptors alon...     »
