  1. electrical discharge

    Electrical discharge is a phenomenon where a sudden, powerful flow of electric current occurs between two points, often accompanied by the emission of light and heat. This may be due to various factors such as a buildup of charge, a sudden change in the environment, or a breakdown of the insulating medium, leading to the rapid movement of electrons to neutralize the accumulated charge. Examples include lightning, sparks, and corona discharges.
