The utility model relates to an apparatus for transmitting lightning stroke position signals by applying an overhead lightning conductor fiber line. The apparatus includes a plurality of numbered sensors that are arranged on an electric pole, an iron tower side electrified power transmission line insulation porcelain insulator or an electrified lightning arrester or an electrified breaker or an electrified disconnect switch or an electrified distribution transformer. The sensors sense lightning strokes and generate induction potentials. The sensors are also in circuit connection with a light transmitter. The light transmitter is in optical path connection with a fiber line on an overhead lightning conductor, and the fiber line is connected to a transformer station. Moreover, the fiber line, positioned on the overhead lightning conductor at the side of the transformer station, is provided with a light receiver. The light receiver is in circuit connection with a terminal signal reception device through a signal processing circuit. The apparatus is simple in system forming structure, is convenient to use, and can effectively, quickly and accurately notify workers in a power department of lightning stroke areas so that the workers detect fault points quickly and accurately, timely troubleshoot and remove the fault points to enable a power transmission line to transmit power quickly again. Therefore, less inconvenience will brought to power users, and economic losses are reduced.
