I don't think they should even be visible in urban areas like this on our
main street map, what use are they? I can see how they would be useful for
a walking map in sparse rural areas, but otherwise they're:

a) Not obvious (what other street map has power lines on it?)

On the other hand, what street map has post boxes, traffic signals and so on on it?

b) Too eye-catching (certainly in "old" countries where straight lines are
otherwise very rare)

Making them visible only above certain zoom levels could be an option.

c) Not of any use

It *is* usefull information for orientation.

I'd favour removing them entirely, or failing that just making them much
less prominent.

Maybe it's time to introduce some layers to hide / show some kind of information "on demand"?

Julian
