A method for testing a lightning protection system of a wind turbine comprises the steps of• positioning, with an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) (4), an electrode (41) near a receptor (51, 52) of a lightning protection system (LPS) (5) of a turbine (10);• creating, with a high voltage generator (42), a high voltage between the electrode (41) and the receptor (51, 52);• thereby creating an electrical arc (45) between the electrode (41) and the receptor (51, 52);• detecting, with a current detection device (46), a current caused by the arc (45) flowing through the lightning protection system (5).
