Niemals an Gasflaschen den bogen zünden
Explanation:
1. // In the arc welding process, an electric current passing through the welding rod or electrode is forced to jump or arc across a gap. The resulting arc produces the intense heat necessary for the arc welding and cutting operation.
The two main enemies of HP Cylinders are Arc Strikes and corrosion.

2.// Any practice such as the tapping of an electrode against a cylinder to strike an arc shall be prohibited.
Cylinders shall never be used as rollers or supports, whether full or empty.

3.// An arc strike on a cylinder will draw the temper and is grounds for INSTANT CONDEMNATION.

keinen Lichtbogen anzünden


Explanation:
to strike: The act of turning on a discharge lamp (e.g. "Make sure you strike the followspot at the half")
[http://www.theatrecrafts.com/glossary/results.php]

Könnte es irgendwie mit Elektrizität zusammen hängen ?

arc = Lichtbogen [Schmitt, Fachwörterbuch Technik & angewandte Wissenschaften

strike, to = anzünden [Schmitt]

Wollte nur helfen um Ihnen weitere Ideen zu geben.

agree  G�nter Simon: Im Prinzip hast du recht, Connie, aber man sagt "einen Lichtbogen zünden" aber: "ein Feuer anzünden", "ein Stück Holz anzünden". Zünden und anzünden sind zwei unterschiedliche Verben.
