What happened when a moth landed on a cables?

When a moth landed on a power cable, it created a circuit by bridging the gap between the cable and the grounded surface, which can lead to a short circuit or electrical discharge. This can cause the moth to be electrocuted due to the high voltage present in the cable. In some cases, if the power supply is not significantly affected, it might go unnoticed, but the moth typically does not survive the encounter.
