Lightning strike on wind turbine fiber optic communication box
The presented method for lightning impact localization and classification using a fiber optic current sensor network helps to detect damages caused by lightning and to monitor the blades. The ProLEC FO lightning strike monitoring system helps in the optimization of operations and maintenance procedures at the wind turbine. Vibration-resistant splice boxes with Swiss precision for extreme wind power environments. Abstract—As wind turbines are increasing both in number and in height, they are exposed to a major threat in form of lightning strikes.
