Do yourself a favor and skip the medieval torture device known as barb wire and put in hi-tensile. It may cost a little more now, but the faster installation time and faster maintenance later will make up for it. Especially if you use green or white insulators, they stand out against the posts, and easy to see if one is missing.
Three strands, top and bottom hot, hold our cows and bulls in. Calves will walk through it in a dry summer but they find their way back to mamma. Center wire has a ground rod at far end from the charger.
Another benefit of tensile is that you don"t need to set braces every time you have to change course. And if you are fencing around the corner of a field, you can follow the curve in the field corner and put the little pocket of waste to use.
Our preferred solar charger is the Sta-fix. It will knock you off the 4-wheeler when the Parmak Solar-Packs (2nd choice) will barely (or won"t) buzz you. Then we have several of the Gallagher S50"s, which have 2 advantages over the Parmak"s of being 12 volt instead of 6. With a couple spade connectors and a few feet of wire you can hook it to an irrigation battery if its battery goes bad. It"s also easier to secure, as it mounts onto a T-post. But it"s not as hot a charger.
Then the Zareba SP3T is good for keeping the cattle off of well sites, pivot bases, etc. Also will hang off a T-post.

It’s amazing how a little floor jack can lift tons and tons of weight with just the flick of a handle. What’s even more amazing is that all the principals of hydraulic theory can be wrapped up in such a small package. This same package applies to any hydraulic system from the largest bulldozer to the oldest and smallest tractor. This short series will take a look at the basic layout of a simple hydraul
