Overview
The value of wind turbines is not only measured by the investments into machines and site development, but through the components which simplify installation and maintenance.
The HARTING Technology Group supports you through technological transformations. Our innovative components, consultants, services and systems help us to guide you into the digital future.
HARTING provides innovative solutions for the ongoing digitalisation of wind energy applications e.g. with fibre optic or sensor solutions. Click below to receive your FREE solutions brochure.
Control Switchgear
Our products and services provide components for control switchgears for your wind turbines. We provide solutions through:
- Our Han®range
- Cable assemblies
- Box Builds:
No matter what the degree of complexity, we have the capacity to produce bespoke box builds to suit your needs. Our team have the knowledge and experience to help you create a project-specific assembly, including installing components and assemblies, efficiently routing cable harnesses and fabrication. To further assist you, our skilled design team can create a 3D CAD visualisation of your build beforehand to ensure absolute accuracy before manufacturing begins.

Turbine Blades
HARTING provides solutions for turbine blades and subsytems through Fibre Optics which can be developed at our Northampton facility.
Why connectors?
HARTING's Han® solutions offer many advantages over permanently attached wiring. There are excellent cost-saving opportunities associated with using connectors for both initial investments as well as installation costs.
HARTING has a wide range of industrial connectors with a pluggable design for power cabinets or interior sections.
Han-Modular®: The market standard for modular connectors
- All-purpose use for data, signal and power, pneumatic and fibre optics
- Integration of multiple connectors into a single unit
- Shorter installation times
- Significant reduction in space requirements
- Cost savings on components and the entire system
- Future-proof thanks to flexible enhancements
Han® B
- Many variations for precise industrial applications
- Proven hoods and housings made of powder-coated die-cast aluminium
- Locking levers: Han-Easy Lock®
- IP67 Rating

Usage of Han® C, Han D®, Han E® and Fibre Optic contacts
Plug-in fibre optic cables allow flexibility
The demands on connection technology for wind energy are high. With tower heights now well over 100 metres, copper-based Ethernet connections are reaching their limits. The solution for longer transmission distances is called 'Fibre Optics' (FO). However, these fibre optic links in a wind turbine are subject to particularly stringent requirements.
FO between the blades and nacelle must be pluggable in order to reduce service and maintenance costs. In addition, fibre endfaces with angled physical contact (APC) technology are employed in measuring technology applications to optimise return loss.
PushPull Fibre Optics
The HARTING PushPull fibre optic family has also been supplemented with additional product variants. Thanks to a special assembly method, single-mode assemblies with angled physical contact (LC APC) are now available.
Your benefits at a glance:
- LC APC angled physical contact
- Custom cable assemblies to meet the toughest demands
- Complete range of accessories for fibre optics in harsh operating environments
