UPDATE: The Russians do it better! See here: /watch?v=_j2jESz7Zl8
One of the more spectacular startups of a steelmaking electric arc furnace. This video is a few years old, so practices and equipment seen here - even the whole furnace - have changed. Draws about 50-60MW of active power (65MVA for the electricians) - almost the same amount of power as a 747 needs while cruising. Recorded with a good microphone, so turn up the volume!
