So I would expect an outcome like 3 or 2 in this video (where something bridges the lines, established the arc, and then it goes away):

Is the arc dissipating because an automatic system is killing power to the lines? Is there going to be damage elsewhere in the system from events like 3 and 2 in the video there?
