Lightning has become a big threat to the safe operation of the main transmission line. Reasonable and accurate calculation of shielding failure rate plays important role in transmission line and tower design. This paper proposes a hybrid approach to calculate the shielding failure-caused trip-out rate, based on the typical electro-geometric model and the regulation method. The case study prove the validity and correctness of this approach, by comparing with the actual operation shielding failure rate.
