            Abstract : 
The lightning-caused breakage mechanism of insulation-covered conductors is analyzed in the paper; two kinds of protective methods are concluded as guiding mode and blocking mode. The structure, characteristics, applied guidance and field application of six devices based on two kinds of protective methods are introduced summarily.
