Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www .iso .org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not

Introduction
In the wind energy industry, coatings are applied to rotor blades surface to protect the glass fibre
reinforced polymer composite substrate. Rain drops and hailstones can damage these coatings in such
a way that individual layers come off or the whole coating delaminates from the substrate.
ISO/TS 19392-1 describes the minimum requirements and weathering of the coating system. Rain
erosion can be simulated by means of high speed water jets or water droplets impinging on the
specimen surface. This document describes a method which simulates rain erosion by accelerating one
or more coated panels, attached to the end of rotating arms, through a simulated rain field at a constant
rotational velocity. ISO/TS 19392-3 describes a method where a water jet or a series of water jets at
defined pressure hits the surface of the specimen.
