Transient behavior of wind towers grounding systems under lightning strikes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Wind turbines, because of their height and localization, are frequently subject to direct lightning strikes. Thus, the investigation on the performance of their grounding system is of paramount interest for the prediction of the potential threats either ...
