Periodic inspection
Inspection of support structures, machines and rotor blades of wind turbines
All wind turbines must be inspected at regular intervals by an independent expert on the supporting structure, machinery and rotor blades. If you miss these deadlines, you run the risk of losing your planning permission or insurance cover. The inspection must be carried out every two years. According to the German Institute for Building Technology (DIBt), the inspection interval can be extended from two to four years if maintenance is carried out annually. In addition, the recurring protection test and the test in accordance with DGUV V3, formerly BGV A3, must be carried out every four years. With the aid of video endoscopy methods, metrological testing of the lightning protection system, chemical analysis of oils and greases, offline vibration measurement, thermography and protection testing, we underpin the quality.
