#4 When approaching this scenario, it is important to make sure the grid is shut down, as too much smoke could allow the electricity to arc.

Its the copper pack-squirrels that are the real problem in that area. Something about too much free time allows the pack-squirrels to meth and steal. Only an hour would suggest the once fuzzy kind though.

#6 Every now and then, these little rodents get arc-lighted in our neighborhood transformers. Also happened one time when a snake got fouled up in a nearby substation.
