Customised Lightning Protection Systems in accordance with IEC 61400-24, Second edition
PolyTech’s comprehensive range of engineering and production skills in the field of lightning protection has made us the wind turbine industry’s preferred partner in this area.
We simulate, develop, design, test and manufacture Lightning Protection Systems (LPS), as well as associated components and solutions, to match individual specifications, wishes and requirements. This ensures you optimal peace of mind and a customised solution that accords with the latest standard (IEC 61400-24, Second edition).
On request, we can also handle the entire development project, from initial specifications to final delivery. Most often, however, development takes place in the form of close and confidential sparring with the customer’s own development department. In such cases we draw on the latest digital tools to ensure a process that is both flexible and secure.
Complete value chain
PolyTech’s customised Lightning Protection Systems are created through a unique combination of:
- specialist knowledge in the areas of lightning, electromagnetism and electrostatic
- rapid prototyping and customer specific solutions
- specially developed polyurethane components with unique dielectric properties, thermal stability and extraordinary mechanical strength
- specially developed high-voltage cables
- high-volume production facilities
- global delivery
All our solutions satisfy the latest standard (IEC 61400-24, Second edition), whose test requirements have been intensified and made mandatory, in contrast to the previous “informative” test sections.
