Well, you are talking about a different effect.
One is high voltage, another is arc.
Arc does not require high voltage, in fact it is a low voltage discharge.
But when you are sat on you a** when disconnecting an iductance, it is the high voltage that does it.
Both are the result of the energy stored in the magnetic field trying to go some place else.
