Distributed renewable energy sources such as wind, solar, and small hydropower of the new distribution network are mainly connected to the grid through distribution lines, which are susceptible to lightning overvoltage. Therefore, this paper conducts a lightning risk assessment of the active distribution network system, including the photovoltaic (PV) side and the line-side. The study analyzes the effectiveness of two lightning protection measures: strengthening insulation and installing lightning arresters in the new distribution network. Strengthening insulation involves enhancing the first three towers and all line towers. However, the results show that both methods cannot effectively reduce the lightning failure rate on the PV-side and may even lead to adverse effects. Additionally, the analysis of in stalling lightning arresters reveals that installing them on the first-level towers of the distribution line can significantly reduce the impact of lightning on both the line and PV-sides. In particular, installing lightning arresters simultaneously on the first three towers closest to the PV-side can drastically reduce the overall lightning trip rate on the line-side.
