AKO Conductor Material: Carrying the current across the pasture
Which conductor is right depends on your animals and your fence. Tape is highly visible and popular for horses, rope is tough and stays steady in the wind, polywire is easy to tension and wire suits permanent fences that stand for many years. AKO groups all this into lines: EconomyLine for getting started, TopLine and TopLine Plus with TriCOND, and PremiumLine for higher demands.
