Understanding Electricity & Electrical Fires

  

The brief video below shows an example of high-voltage arc tracking simulating a poorly installed 12,000V neon sign which allows current to actually flow through water and over the surface of wood. This current then chars and carbonizes the wood which allows more current to flow and to ignite the wood. After watching the video you will be able to understand how this mode of overheating works and how it can be the ignition source of a fire.
