@berndpfe Not even that.
There were a series of faults in the system, and the shit hit the fan.
Oil gets heated, then gets released and ignited by an arc.
The oil smoke acutally increases the airs resistance.

Ok, that seems bad.

I dont think it is water here which comes out... The arcing causes massive overheat of the device so cooling oil expands and finally leaks, then catches fire, massive smoke makes the air around the insulators conductive, this causes the final "flash" (blowing some thermal fuse obviously). only massive Co2 foaming will do the job.

this is why you should replace your kettle every 5 years it plays hell with the electrical company and their transformers
-
yeah that's just great... massive high voltage electrical arcing... BUT LET'S SPRAY IT WITH WATER!!! BOOOOOOM!!!! NOW it's fire. :P
