Abstract

The invention relates to an assembly method for a vibration damper of a tower of a wind power plant, in which the vibration damper is switched into a transport state from a state of use. The vibration damper is connected to a structural component of the tower such that a damper mass of the vibration damper can be set in motion, during which movement the distance between the damper mass and a central axis of the tower varies. The vibration damper is switched into the transport state by tilting the vibration damper compared to the state of use. The invention also relates to an associated assembly system.
