If you're the type of person who maps power infrastructure in OpenStreetMap, you may be interested in my new PowerNetworkTools plugin:
https://github.com/openinframap/josm-power-network-tools/
The first tool allows you to estimate the voltage of a substation busbar from aerial imagery. Full details in the git README. Hopefully more tools available soon!
Available wherever you usually get your JOSM plugins (i.e. the settings dialog).

@russss@chaos.social hey, I considered entering power infra in osm once, then asked myself who would benefit from having a map of the culvert used for water catchment for the hydro power station in my home town. I did not like the answer I gave myself and scrapped the changeset. We don't live in a world to my taste...

@russss@chaos.social when I first read this I understood ‘power infrastructure’ as political power infrastructure. That would be an interesting map as well …
