One of our high schools has this situation. The ground rules have always been as such:

For the wire overhead behind home plate, if it hits it, it's an immediate dead ball, and foul.

For the wires in both right and left field that cross from foul to fair moving away from the plate, it's always described as this: "Umpire will call fair or foul based on the striking point of the ball. The ball can be caught for an out, otherwise it's a live ball unless foul."

It is played this way whether in HS Fed ball, or American Legion games.
