Lightning receptor for a wind turbine rotor blade, the lightning receptor being produced in one part in a casting process and having a receptor tip, a receptor suction side, a receptor pressure side, a receptor nose edge and a receptor end edge, defined by a fastening portion with two mutually opposite adhesive bonding surfaces which are formed by recesses in the receptor pressure side and in the receptor suction side, a receptor-nose-edge-side leg and a receptor-end-edge-side leg projecting beyond the fastening portion in a direction away from the receptor tip.

Lightning receptor for a wind turbine rotor blade

A wind turbine rotor blade is provided. The wind turbine blade has a lightning receptor, a first electric line, and a potential equalization arrangement having a first electrode, which is connected to the lightning receptor, and a second electrode, which is connected to the first electric line, a spark gap being formed between the two electrodes, mutually facing sides of the two electrodes forming an air flow channel, which is arranged such that the ambient air that is incident when the wind turbine rotor blade is in operation flows through it.
