ABSTRACT:
A member for potential equalising in a wind turbine blade between a first conducting member, such as a member comprising carbon fibres, and a second conducting member, such as a lightning conductor is provided. Furthermore, methods for manufacturing of such members for potential equalising are provided. The member for potential equalising comprises a first contact part suitable for connection to a conducting member comprising carbon fibres, a second contact part and an electrical conductor between the contact parts and the first contact part, wherein the first contact part is shaped substantially as a ribbon.
