<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an improved lightning protection system for a wind turbine. <P>SOLUTION: A lightning protection system is provided for the wind turbine 1 that includes a tower 2, a nacelle 3 arranged at an upper part of the tower 2, a blade hub 4 rotating centering on a rotational axial line (a) at a front end of the nacelle 3, and a blade 5 attached to the blade hub 4. The lightning protection system includes an inner conductor 11 inside the blade 5, an outer conductor 12 arranged outside the blade 5 and in electrical communication with the inner conductor 11, a collecting conductor 13 arranged at the front end of the nacelle 3 and in electrical communication with the outer conductor and a down-conductor 14 connected to ground and in electrical communication with the collecting conductor 13. The outer conductor 12 and the collecting conductor 13 have substantially the same distance to the rotational axial line (a). Further, a wind turbine with such a lightning protection system is provided. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
