A method for operating a wind turbine generator connected to a power network to account for recurring voltage faults on the power network caused by automatic reclosure of at least one circuit breaker following a short-circuit. The method comprises: identifying a deviation of voltage level of the power network from a normal operational voltage level of the network; determining that the identified deviation fulfils criteria for automatic reclosure; and operating the wind turbine generator in a recurring fault mode if automatic reclosure criteria are fulfilled. When operating the wind turbine generator in recurring fault mode, the method comprises: monitoring the recovery of the voltage level from the deviation; categorising the recovery of the voltage as one of at least a strong recovery or a weak recovery; and implementing a ride-through protocol according to the category of recovery.
