    Abstract: The present invention provides a wind turbine comprising a lightning protection system for providing an electrical conduction path suitable for conducting lightning from the rotor to electrical ground. The lightning protection system comprises a shroud which is electrically coupled to a wind turbine bearing housing and a wind turbine hub and/or the front end of the main shaft. The shroud forms part of the electrical conduction path so to electrically couple a wind turbine rotor to the bearing housing via a short circuit path that bypasses the bearing arrangement.
