Wind turbine blade with an integrated lightning conductor

A wind turbine rotor blade made from a single laminated structure, the wind turbine rotor blade comprising:

• a first lightning conductor integrated into the single laminated structure;
• a tip;
• a trailing edge;
• a metallic block located close to the tip and;
• and
• a second lightning conductor having a first end and a second end, the first end connected to the first lightning conductor attached to the metallic block,
• wherein the first lightning conductor is at least partly a braided conductor,
• wherein the first lightning conductor is connected to the metallic block,
• wherein the second end is connected to a further metallic block that is located along the trailing edge, and
• wherein the second end of the second lightning conductor is connected to the first lightning conductor via a squared washer bolted to the shear web or the second end is bent around the first lightning conductor.
