Power systems before the transformer meaning line transmission and distribution have cutout relays to shunt lightning strikes to ground. A bad secondary strike can blow a transformer off a pole, turn park wiring incandescent, make a Hughes Autoformer, or "Energy Management System" look remarkably similar to a turkey baked in an oven 36 hours, and fry a lot of circuits downstream from that.
