[QUOTE="dun, post: 212483, member: 34"] The distancew between posts is a product of how heavy the wire is and how tight it's pulled. For polywire we run a post every 40-50 feet on the flat ground, others places there's one every 10 feet. If it's going to be permanent high tensil I pull it fairly tight and find the lowest sag and put a post there, then pull it tight and put a post at the lowest sag again, usually one on either side of the first post which is generally somewhere near the middle. Aome places we put them in every 100 feet or so and just a use a fiberglass stay to keep the wire off the ground at the sag points. For high tensile or poly we use as ingle strand 28-32 inches high. dun [/QUOTE]
