Surge Protection for Wind Turbine
Wind Farms are in open and exposed environment and the tall windmill is highly prone to lightning damage and thus must be well-protected against it. After lightning receiving / down conducting / grounding, it is necessary to install SPDs on:
- stator/rotor of the generator
- transformers of different levels
- controlling and communication signal cables
If you check on Youtube, there are many videos about lightning hits a wind turbine. This may be the NO.1 problem for a wind turbine. A robust lightning / surge protection system is critical for its continuous operation.
