1 Scope
This Technical Specification applies to surge protection of wind turbine generators and wind power
systems.
Normative references are made to generic standards for lightning protection, low-voltage systems and
high-voltage systems for machinery and installations and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC).
This Technical Specification defines requirements for selection and installation of surge protective
devices for the power circuits. Some special information about particular testing are also included
since there is not a current standard for testing surge protective devices for wind turbines.

4 General
Due to the increased numbers of Wind Turbines that are used nowadays more data regarding losses
and damages due to lightning strikes are available. From these data it is clearly that surge protection
is an important issue and shall be carefully examined during the design and construction of a Wind
Farm. The purpose of this document is to outline the main protection issues to prevent damages due
to lightning focusing on the internal lightning protection system and more particularly to the selection
and application of surge protective devices that shall be used.
5 Equipment to be protected
The main electrical equipments that can be found, but not limited, in a wind turbine are the following:
• generator;
