Very dry climate (at normally damp places) can start fires almost from anything, like a not completely extinguished cigarette, so is difficult to find one culprit.
In fact, when severe dry events occurs here, is common to wildfires starting near to highways, due to drivers tossing cigarettes and suchlike windows out.
Other thing, voltage wise... here we use 13.8kV even at coast, without noticed induced fires or discharges. We use even 34kV near where I live, in rural zone and the most far neighborhood, using hardware not so different from 13.8kV (only the insulators are bigger sized), also without notice even at severe dry events (at least I not heard nothing about). Maybe other people noticed something different.
