4. The Challenge
• Drive components in the pitch system to provide braking capability to the wind turbine.
• Integrating the main control unit of the top and the bottom box of the wind mill.
• Integrating the gear systems in the yaw drive of the wind mill.
• Supplying power to large and small terminal boxes in the generator
• Controlling the operation of the gear box and the drip loops.
• Cabinet earthing
• Facilities for the ventilation and coolant systems in the wind mill.
• Connecting the slip ring from the gear box to the top box.

5. The Lapp
Solution
• OLFLEX control cables for integrating robust energy generators
• Cables to be able to withstand high magnitudes of mechanical abuse and exposure to functions
leading to abrasion, these cables are also compact and flexible.
• OLFLEX cables to control and supply power to the top and bottom box in the main control unit.
• Low resistance cables for better connectivity
• Lapp also supplied NSGAFOU earthing cables to ensure safety of the devices.
