Remote lightning strike detection on wind turbine blades. The players in the wind industry need to identify the impacts of lightning on wind turbine blades, in order to manage the damage caused. The invention relates to a device for informing a wind farm manager that a lightning strike has impacted a wind turbine blade 24 hours a day, 7 days a week anywhere in the world without hindering the normal operation of the wind turbine. . It consists of an electronic card developed and configurable specifically for the wind energy environment that can measure lightning strikes from 0 to 200kA with several frequencies in a very short time (1s), a radio / GSM box, a power cable and three magnetic field measurement cables. When a lightning strike hits a wind turbine blade, a notification and an email containing a link to the online consultation of this impact are sent. The user can view the impact value 24/7 and initiate an inspection if necessary. It can also reset the system with an easily identifiable button, without having to stop the wind turbine.
