    Abstract: A wind turbine blade (1) incorporating an optical fibre (4) configured for structural monitoring of the turbine blade. The optical fibre comprises at least one strain sensor (5). One end of the optical fibre (4) is an output point, which is connected to a data processing device (3) configured to process signals from the strain sensor (5). The other end of the optical fibre is an alternative output point, which is also connectable to the data processing device, such that in the event of a breakage in the optical fibre, signals from the strain sensor are available from at least one of the output points.
