Lightning is a substantial cause that leads to serious lightning failures, which has a significant influence on the normal operation of the entire power grid. This paper mainly focused on several regions of China with serious lightning activity, presenting the lightning performance of power grids by statistics obtained from long-term monitoring data, and intended to indicate some general characteristics. The lightning tripout rate, the shielding failure tripout ratio, the occurrence frequency corresponding tripout failures of different phases of single-circuit or double-circuit transmission lines, and the multicircuit simultaneous tripout failures of multicircuit transmission lines were analyzed. These statistical results presented a panorama of the lightning protection effect of transmission lines in China. The statistical data in this paper are informative to guide the future research or engineering practice of lightning protection of transmission lines, and will be helpful to evaluate the analysis methods of lightning performance of transmission lines.
