This guide is not intended for the WPP substation, however since the substation is typically interconnected with the collector system, its design might affect or be affected by the 4 collector system. With proper consideration, the methods described herein could be used in 5 determining the impact of the collector system on substation safety and vice versa. 67 Quantitative analysis of the effects of lightning surges is beyond the scope of this document. 8 Similarly, this guide does not cover offshore wind power plants, battery energy storage facilities, 9 solar power plants, or substation grounding. 10 11 Keywords: collector system, grounding, IEEE 2760TM, safety, wind power plant 12 The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc. 3 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10016-5997, USA Copyright 2020 by The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc All rights reserved.
