Study on Transient Overvoltage and Surge Arrester Electrical Stresses in Offshore Wind Farms Under Multiple Lightning Strokes

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Lightning strikes are a major cause of wind turbine (WT) damage, with approximately 80% of cloud-to-ground lightning strikes exhibiting a multi-stroke characteristic. Therefore, studying the transient overvoltages induced by multiple lightning strokes is
