Electric Fence Hint: To join poliwire or politape, use a cigarettle lighter to burn away the plastic yarn in order to expose the stainless steel wire. Twist and join the wires together, then tie the poliwire or politape in a knot. The electrical current can then pass through the join. When inter-connecting fence wires at the end of a strain, use joint clamps. Using these clamps, instead of twisting wires together prevents arcing and greatly reduces voltage loss
