As a hobbyist electrical engineer, one of the most important things I've learned is that at high voltages and/or high currents, our nice lovely lumped element model is not always accurate. There's enough stray inductance and capacitance in random places that with a very fast voltage spike, anything is possible.

Thank you.

Imagine a shipping container full of metal boxes sitting on metal shelves, filled with metal components in a very dusty hot dry environment with fans going in the containers and boxes, pulling megawatts of power and suddenly a bird lands on the transformer.

I'd say anything with electricity is possible at that point.
