Hi Stewart,
The link for one of the datasets I'm working with is below. It seems to
be openly available, but there's not much discussion on sharing
restrictions. The dataset is designed for project developer use and is
freely downloadable and they're not trying to hide any data the way PG&E
(another local large utility) does. It's got substation and line data
with more voltage information than on the osm layer for that region.
There are also significant overlaps and differences between the osm set
and the utility-provided set which leads me to believe that there are
some inaccuracies in the osm layer that should be corrected.

Ideally, I'd like to run some sort of automated import, but given the
level of complexity with overlapping and incorrect data points, i'm not
sure if this'll work.
Thanks for the quick reply and the help!
