Abstract
A method of securing a cable () to a wind turbine blade is described. The method involves providing a pre-assembled cable assembly () comprising a cable () and a plurality of mounts (-) pre-attached to the cable () at intervals along the length of the cable (). The plurality of mounts (-) is attached to a surface () of a wind turbine blade such that the mounts (-) are spaced apart along the surface () of the blade. The spacing between adjacent mounts (-) when the mounts (-) are attached to the blade is less than the length of the cable () between said adjacent mounts (-) such that a predetermined amount of slack is provided in the cable () between said adjacent mounts (-). A pre-assembled cable assembly for use in the method is also described together with a method of assembling the cable assembly.
