Wind turbines - Protective measures - Requirements for design, operation and maintenance

Scope

This European Standard specifies requirements for protective measures relating to health and safety of persons, domestic animals and property, to be incorporated into the design, operation and maintenance of wind turbines. The requirements cover the potential danger zones inside and in the environment of a wind turbine where persons, domestic animals and property may be exposed to hazards from the wind turbine. This standard covers the safety issues of the wind turbine itself and the directly related material, equipment and processes essential for the safe operation of the complete system. This also includes switchgear outside the tower, internal grid, grid connection, and any means of access. This European Standard does not cover the structural design of the wind turbine. This European Standard is not applicable to wind turbines manufactured before the date of its publication by CENELEC.
