Powerplant makes an electric arc
This is video from an Arizona powerplant.
The technician is disconnecting the powerplant from the western states electrical grid.
Several hundred megawatts of electricity arc across the physical contacts as they are disconnected by drawing them apart.
The resulting man made lightning effect is really cooool. This happens only once every few years.
