The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) has also published standards related to lightning protection for wind power systems. These standards provide guidance on the design, installation, and maintenance of lightning protection systems for wind turbines and associated electrical equipment.

The most relevant IEC standard for wind power lightning protection is IEC 61400-24, "Wind turbines - Part 24: Lightning protection". This standard provides detailed guidance on the design and installation of lightning protection systems for wind turbines, including the use of lightning receptors, down-conductors, bonding systems, and grounding systems.

Other relevant IEC standards for wind power lightning protection include:

  • IEC 62305-1, "Protection against lightning - Part 1: General principles": This standard provides general guidance on the protection of structures and equipment against lightning strikes, including wind turbines.

  • IEC 62305-2, "Protection against lightning - Part 2: Risk management": This standard provides guidance on the assessment of lightning risks and the selection of appropriate protection measures, including for wind turbines.

  • IEC 62305-3, "Protection against lightning - Part 3: Physical damage to structures and life hazard": This standard provides guidance on the design and installation of lightning protection systems to prevent physical damage to structures and protect against life hazards, including for wind turbines.

By following the guidance provided by these IEC standards, wind power developers and operators can help to ensure the safety and reliability of their systems in the face of lightning strikes and other electrical events. It's important to note that compliance with IEC standards is often a requirement for obtaining certification for wind turbines and related equipment, so it's important to carefully follow the relevant guidelines.
