6 FAQs about [Technical requirements for lightning protection of wind farm power stations]
What are lightning protection concepts for wind turbine blades?
Lightning protection concepts for large modern wind turbine blades. Blade lightning environment type A classifies the rotor blade in four areas with different exposure to direct strikes, whereas type B makes use of two areas.
What are the new lightning protection standards?
The general lightning protection standards of the recently updated IEC 62305 series, EMC considerations from the IEC 61000 series, the specific standards for electrical systems on machinery and the general standards for electrical systems were relevant references for issuing the new revision.
What are the guidelines for lightning protection?
Guidance pertaining to the use of applicable lightning protection, industrial electrical and EMC standards including earthing is provided along with personal safety recommendations. Similarly, guidelines for damage statistics and reporting are provided.
How often do wind turbines get hit by lightning?
Given the frequency of lightning occurrences in the regions of the world where this new expansion is taking place, all these new wind turbines may be hit by lighting several times during its operational life time.
How does lightning stroke affect wind turbine?
In the process of lightning stroke, when the lightning current flows through the frame and tower, it will produce induced Overvoltage on the sensor, communication line and even power line. These transient overvoltage will affect the normal operation of the wind turbine.
How high can a wind turbine go?
Wind turbines are integrated with complex electrical and sensitive control systems and their rotating blades can reach 60 meters or more above the tower top.
