       Location: The end of the Earth, SE AR | Has anyone used the Horseguard brand BiPolar Fence Tape? Its supposed to be better than traditional tape fence. HORSEGUARD MONO-POLAR (traditional) FENCE | | HORSEGUARD BI-POLAR FENCE | The 10 big wires must be connected together at each stainless buckle in order to operate with the same voltage. | | The permanent contact of the big five wires at each edge of the Bi-Polar tape avoid arcing and cuts. |

We've got all mares and just one gelding so of course the animals in it are practically bi-polar. Thought I'd get a fence to match. |

| Yes, it is great and if they get tangled it breaks away easily. It doesn't need a ground because they ground themselves when they lean on it, so it works on non grounding ground... If that makes sense:) ground that is very dry or frozen/snow covered doesn't ground very well or not at all. |

    Location: USA | When I used to board ,that was all they used. It was awesome! When I bought my gelding, first thing he did was run right through it. He didn't have a scratch on him and the fence was so easy to fix . I now have my horses at the house and although I have another kind of fencing on my permanent pastures, I use the 2 inch tape from TSC on my temporary pastures and use the horseguard insulators. The insulators are a rubber material instead of a hard plastic. They hold up WAY LONGER than other insulators. Can't say enough about the insulators. Horseguard is a great company hands down. And their brown tape fencing looks great around pastures. |
