What is difference in the wire that you get with the underground fence and regular insulated wire?
Question:I want to get an underground fence but i cant figure out what the difference in the wire they use and regular insullated wire. What is the difference and why can't i use regular wire instead of the wire that comes with the kit
Answers:
The wire that comes in the kits you buy from the store ranges in guage from 20-24 the wire used by a good fence dealer ranges from 14-16. The wire you get from a dealer is designed for direct burial. Pet Stop Brand Dealers are reguired to us 14-16 guage wire depending on the application. But all our wire has a 45mil Polyethylene Coating on it to make it more durable to abrasions and cuts and also not to be affected by the sun. Visit www.petstop.com
There isn't anything special about the wire that comes with the kit, it is just wire. If you have already installed the fence and just need to enlarge the area you can use your own wire just make sure it is the same gauge wire as is already hooked up.
