Abstract

A nacelle bottom cover part (32) for the underside of a wind turbine nacelle is formed with a number of shallow receptacle regions for containing liquid leaked or spilled from turbine components. Overflow channels (88,90,92) may be provided between the receptacle regions so that leaked liquid can flow between receptacle regions.
