This is another one from my archive, this is a paxolin insulated support in a old 3 phase dist board, the bolts are across 3 phase and due to water ingress you can see where the arcing from one bolt to the next created a carbon path which took out the power to the building.

I made a temp' repair job to bring the short back up to a respectable value before quoting for a new board.
These are many years old and just posting for those that don't see the effects of arc damage on this level.

The bottom photo has cropped itself for some reason, it simply shows the temp repair grinding out the carbon and getting it up to 20Mohms.
