Wind Power
Mechanical Connectors
The durable RC70/RC100 rebar clamps provide two connection points to rebar in the wind turbine grounding foundation and meet the NECŪ standard requirement for bonding to rebar. The EP2 Earth Plate provides a secure and effective point for joining foundation slab rebar to an external earth.

Testers
Earth testers are ideal for determining soil resistivity prior to designing the wind turbine foundation earth system and for testing the final resistance of the earth system after installation.
Surge Protection
The damage caused by lightning strike surges and voltage transients is a common cause of electronic equipment failure, performance disruption and unscheduled system downtime in wind turbine structures. ERICO offers a complete line of surge protection devices that can be coordinated into an effectively staged electrical protection plan.
 
Wind turbine applications include the protection of:

Electrical control cabinets and panels on:
Power supply circuits and high current relay controls
DIN rail-mounted components (DSD Dinline Surge Diverter, TDS Transient Discriminating Surge Diverters)
Communication and signal lines, including SCADA systems (UTB Universal Transient Barrier)
External Service Entrance Protection
TDX Transient Discriminating Panel Protectors
