That's the release of energy stored by the highly inductive power lines. We learned about this in my electrical engineering class, but I can't remember what it is called. You really need to have some understanding of AC power to know what's going on here.
It's not arcing caused by large voltages because they forgot to turn off the power. You can't just press a button and magically turn off the power. Somewhere you need to physically have a switch that opens the circuit.
Do you have technical Knowledge about it? If yes, i wold like you send me. Take care your words! Next time i can to write In Deutch(Germany)or Portuguese.
cool nice arcing there, musta been in the megavolts though. and yes its real, when you get about 30,000 volts or more, electricity can arc 5 to 10 metres!
Hi mate, I work with 3-phase power but only 415V not these crazy amounts. No matter, the fact that you spotted that this was a 3-phase disconnection and only one arced is fuckin EAGLE-EYE mate, well done!
Those air-opening switches are supposed to use a 'puffer box' (containers of the gas sulfur hexafloride) to prevent such arcs. I assume the system failed, hence 1 phase 'opening hot'.
It's not that strange - the arc is just pretty big (most times it's MUCH smaller).
Seems like the workers opened the main connection between a transformer station and an overhead powerline. The big metal arms you see moving at the beginning are the contacts (the "switch").
Now you know why mom told you not to play near the powerline. ;)
We watched this movie last year in my physics class. A comment from another site explained that the reason there is this huge arc is because the workers opened some kind of huge shunt (the swinging arms) and didn't shut the power off. Just a guess from the cobwebs of my memory.
You have no idea on what voltage and current is required to hold that kind of arch? Big juice! Turn a guy into a crisp in seconds. Check out the guy walking away to get an Idea.

The arc rises because the air directly above it is heated and this makes it an easier path. Just like what happens in a Jacob's ladder.
