Probably just a squirrel frying himself in an electrical transformer...

Looks like one of the generators may have had a problem.
I know sometimes if you take one down for maintenance and don’t do everything properly to put it back in service, you can end up really having a bad day.

Wife and I did a tour of the Hoover Dam...down inside. From what I remember, there are many huge power generators down there....lots of spinning parts. If one of those gave up the smoke...would not be pretty. Very interesting trip.

Gee. At the base of the dam. Gee. Maybe some leaves spontaneously catching fire?

Nope!
Nothing suspicious...

Hosing down transformer fires is NOT on my list of things to do.....

A pretty normal transformer explosion.
To: HippyLoggerBiker
BOULDER CITY, Nev. (AP) — No one was injured when a transformer at Hoover Dam briefly caught fire Tuesday morning, officials said.
“There is no risk to the power grid and power is still being generated,” according to Jacklynn L. Gould, the Bureau of Reclamation’s regional director for the Lower Colorado Region.
The fire ignited around 10 a.m. and was extinguished about half an hour later, she said.

It’s hooter than the hubs of hell right now in that area. The electrical gird is maxed out. Probably a transformer blew.
