The tag building=service represents a building specially designed to contain constantly working machinery like pumps, transformers or measuring equipment. Usually such buildings are not meant for people to be inside while the machinery is functioning normally.
How to map
Map the building and add the tag building=service.
If the building is used as a substation then it should also get the following tags:
- power=substation
- substation=minor_distribution
- voltage=* (if the voltages are known, e.g. voltage=10000;400)
Other optional tags for substation:
- operator=* (the name of the power company)
- ref=*, name=* (any reference number or name the power company may use to refer to this substation)
