How to Map

ElementWay.png

Draw a way and add the power=line to it. You can add additional values like name=*, voltage=* and operator=* as well. The towers/poles that support the power line can be mapped as well using either power=tower for large high voltage lines or power=pole for smaller lines. If known, ref=* can be added to contain the tower numbers. It is not necessary to tag power lines with a layer=* unless then cross over each other.
