[QUOTE="Bama, post: 257999, member: 1184"] All of the above helped. The part about running two wires splitting the voltage is a old wives tale. Both wires will have the same voltage on them if they have the same resistive load on them. Resistive load refering to length, wiresize, grass, bad insulators, etc... Although tieing them together at the end did help. A common thing that happens with poor insulators is people wrapping the wire several times around the insulator. This will cause a inductive or transformer type action that will show up on poor insulators. When the charge goes from 0 to full voltage it will induce a current into a nail or other metalic object if it is passing through the coil of wire. Once the charge hits full voltage ( were talking miliseconds here) the emf will cease. Its hard to explain just don't use cheap insulators. [/QUOTE]
