I would have expected more arcing when it was raining or high humidity.

Could someone please explain why arcing is 40 Khz?

Last night I tried my digital camera and binoculars. I could see the arc's with binoculars! Looks like ground and neutral wires are to close to other hardware. The digital camera captured one arc but was so dark could not see the pole. Anyone ever use a night vision camera like used for hunting etc for this?
