The Harford County Power Surge Incident,
August 23, 1988 Started at 10:35AM
Moores Mill Road, Bel Air, Maryland
(Video clips from an original copy)

A Power surge was created when Aspen Tree service dropped a tree branch on to 33,000 volt line. Then the 33,000 volt line fell onto a 13,000 volt line, and it dumped 20,000 extra volts into the electric lines and houses. The safety system failed to shut off the electric! This tape is used for different electric, and fireman training classes.
