There is a clear distinction between Hochspannung and Mittelspannung:

Transformatorstationen (aka substation) look like this:

Umspannwerke (aka power station) look like this:

It's not that big a problem to distinguish.

If you know the voltages, note it (in and out, BTW).

BTW, (areal) size doesn't matter. ;)

And BTW (for mapnik), power=*station should have a flash icon like
