As per the R&A rules, immovable obstruction is NOT for ball in flight. Therefore, these specific cases like electric pilons, wires across the fairway etc... are generally local club rules. In most of the courses (Like in Hindon, Army golf course etc) ... the local rule is "You take a re shot without penalty, however only in the case of hitting from the fairway".
