For cost effective portable electric fencing on shorter fence lines this wire is also ideal for use in windy conditions. The resistance is 6000 Ohms/km or 9656 Ohms/mile *Resistance refers to the conductivity of the product. Low resistance (i.e. 110 Ohms/km) means higher conductivity (less resistance to the electric pulse means it can travel further down the fence line). This Poly wire is made from hard wearing UV resistant materials with x6 stainless steel strands and comes backed by a full 1-year manufacturer's warranty.
