I have converted the street to shape and inserted the colllada but it is scaled wrongly.

It looks like your asset could be resized with s().  assetInfo() might also be useful to know the original asset's dimensions.

s operation—CGA | ArcGIS

assetInfo function—CGA | ArcGIS

Alternatively, you could try to use the rule ESRI.lib/rules/Fences/Fence_On_Graph.cga and tell it to use your own assets for the pole and powerline.  This rule file can be applied to street shapes.  I imagine you would want something similar to the Rope_Fence style.
