[QUOTE="JRGidaho`, post: 708438, member: 13410"] The PolyBraid from PowerFlex fence can be cut and spliced much more easily than the old twisted polywires. Because the conductors are braided together, you only need to have one contact point in your knot and the energy flow is good. With a simple square knot, you will have several contact points so voltage loss in minimized. I have a couple of reels made up with 8 to 10 100+ ft sections of PolyBraid as well as several reels with continuous unbroken PolyBraid. When I measure voltage at the far end of line there is only about 100 volt difference between 1320 ft of continuous PolyBraid and the spliced reels. With twisted polywire that many splices would usualy cost us at least 1000 volts. Like dun, I wonder why you're cutting pieces for each move or is this temp fence staying up longer than a day or two?
