IEC EN 61400-2 Wind Turbines - Part 2: Standard Test Method for Small Wind Turbines

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of IEC EN 61400-2 testing. IEC EN 61400-2 deals with safety philosophy, quality assurance and engineering integrity and specifies requirements for the safety of small wind turbines (SWTs) including design, installation, maintenance and operation under specified external conditions.

IEC EN 61400-2 Wind Turbines - Part 2: Standard Test Method for Small Wind Turbines

It provides an appropriate level of protection against hazards arising from these systems throughout their planned life. This standard deals with all subsystems of SWTs, such as protection mechanisms, internal electrical systems, mechanical systems, support structures, foundations, and load and electrical interconnects. This standard is similar to IEC EN 61400-1, but simplifies and makes significant changes so that it can be applied to small wind turbines.

This standard deals with all subsystems of SWTs, such as protection mechanisms, internal electrical systems, mechanical systems, support structures, foundations, and load and electrical interconnects. A small wind turbine system includes the wind turbine itself, including support structures, turbine controller, charge controller/inverter (if needed), wiring and disconnection, installation and operation manuals, and other documentation.

SWTs are subject to environmental and electrical conditions that may affect their loading, durability and operation. To ensure the appropriate level of safety and reliability, environmental, electrical and ground parameters should be considered in the design and clearly specified in the design documentation.

Environmental conditions are divided into wind conditions and other environmental conditions. Electrical conditions refer to grid conditions or local electrical conditions such as batteries, hybrid systems or local grid. Soil properties are relevant to the design of SWT foundations.
