equipment
I think it is more than just the tools, for example, on ships it is the total equipment of masts and sails and cranes, etc., while the word 'tools' to me sounds more like individual instruments.

Jean-Claude Gouin
: IMO, "tool shed or tool cabinet" should not be in the list of possible translations ... That's where we could store the "agrès" ...

Poaching from 2 previous answers, just to have the space to comment at greater length.
I feel sure the general sense is indeed some kind of apparatus, and exactly what that is called is going to depend on the exact context; however, as some of Tassia's other questions have related to power lines, I can't help wondering if this isn't maybe some specialist industry term for the special kinds of apparatus that are mounted on the ground (various kinds of gantry / scaffold). Cf. this quote from M/M's Wiki ref.:
"Agrès ... Un agrès est *une structure reliée au sol*, et où il est possible de pratiquer une activité physique..."

Bourth (X)
: I think rings (gymnastics) are also agrès, a term also used for apparatus in these treetop adventure courses, etc. Possibly lines, winches, harnesses etc. for aerial work on the turbines??

Just to be contrary, Tony!
Any chance of fuller context?
Periodic monitoring for the condition-oriented maintenance of WIND TURBINES forms an integral part of the services provided by Germanischer Lloyd WindEnergie (GL Wind). The company of Germanischer Lloyd is now offering inspection by means of ROPE ACCESS TECHNOLOGY (RAT) to give customers an efficient and economical method for performing a rotor blade survey.
ROPE ACCESS techniques are already firmly established as a flexible and efficient way of working on poorly accessible buildings or industrial plants; in recent years, these techniques have proven their worth throughout Germany, especially for work on towers, chimneys and glass facades.
In view of the rapid growth in turbine sizes – a hub height of over 100 metres is no longer a rarity – the conventional use of truck-based telescopic platforms for rotor blade inspections is reaching its limits.
