Lightning is the main cause of transmission line failure, and it is important to improve the lightning protection level of the transmission line for the stability of the power system. Traditional solutions for the shielding failure of transmission lines is to use the electrical geometric model method. However, with the improvement of the voltage level, the physical size increases, and the calculation of lightning protection for ultrahigh-voltage dc lines has a greater difference with operating experience. Based on the Ningxia-Shandong dc transmission lines in China, this study utilised the lead development model to describe the flashover of insulators and the breakdown of the gaps. A comprehensive calculation method of shielding failure trip-out rate considering terrain, earth resistance and weather was proposed. The accuracy was much higher when compared with the traditional calculation and the result can be a reference for other similar calculation for dc lines. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
