Abstract
A wind power plant includes a control system operatively connected to switchgear devices of a plurality of wind turbine clusters, and wherein the control system is configured to identify the existence of a no-generation condition affecting at least one of the plurality of wind turbine clusters; control the switch status of the switchgear devices, based on the identification, to control the connection status of each of the plurality of wind turbine clusters to an inter-cluster power network so as to reduce no load losses of the wind turbine clusters.
