Picture of cat chasing a rat in some 15kv switchgear. I guess they did not read the Arc flash labels

 Not a OSHA violation but you think PETA may get onboard to sue the company?

So did the service drop?
Kind of curious if something tripped and this is how it was found? Need the Paul Harvey, rest of the story....

This happens about 5 years ago. The switchgear door was left open. I did trip the upstream breaker and caused minor damage to the switchgear. Plant was down for about 4-hours to clean up the mess. The Electricans that cleaned up the mess didn't really like the smell of fried cat

Well, I've got kids, and so I like for them watch the classics when they're on. I was just passing through the room...
