"Although the exact cause was never determined, the fire began in the undeveloped chaparral and grasslands of Wildcat Canyon, just east of the ridgeline of the Berkeley Hills, and was propelled over the ridge and southwestward just south of Codornices Creek by a strong, gusty, and intensely dry northeasterly wind."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1923_Berkeley,_California,_fire
Heat and wind appear to be the common cause for all the fires across California that week, and electrical delivery infrastructure was really young in 1923.
A lot of the towers and transmission equipment built by #PGE in California are old. The #Paradise #fire was caused by a hook on a tower that had been swinging in the wind long enough to saw itself in half. A PG&E engineer told me that the towers in the SF #EastBay are of the same vintage as Paradise.
It's also worth noting that people thought planting #eucalyptus was a good idea for a cash crop, in the late 19th century, in California.

The #CASIO system is seeking peak demand right now, and there are #outages too. The bulk are planned outages in #SCE at around 9k customers, with over 3k on unplanned outages. #PGE is seeing over 2k of customer outages.
#HeatAdvisory across the system on Friday.
