ditto, same problem occasionally. I insert some scraps of plastic between
the clamp and the two adjacent turns of the primary and the arcing goes away.

other solutions include redesign for more turns in primary (less volts per
turn), or larger turn-to-turn spacing, or "thinner" clamp, or clamp with
smoother/roundier (no sharp edges) surfaces.
