I originally purchased Electrobraid when I started installing fence at our new home.......I liked it when I originally installed it.  It has a tendency to kink and was a pain to install, but I liked it.  This spring, when it was time to start adding on I took the recommendations of a few friends and purchased the Electric Rope from Premier fencing.  It is the same diameter as the electrobraid but it is white and black twisted together.  They have 2 different grades made out of different materials with quite a price difference.  I purchased a few rolls of both and I absolutely love them.  Premier fencing is wonderful to deal with and I love their no nonsense way of doing business.  Even if you decide to go with the Electrobraid consider purchasing the insulators from Premier.  Their catalogs are very easy to understand and they have every accessory you could imagine to make things easier.  The original friend that told me about it adopts wild mustangs and has her own studs, she has never had a problem.  I have 12 more acres to fence in and I will use Premier fencing for all of it.

We are about to order Electro Braid for a temporary paddock on our new
property-- .Then we are planning to refence the barbwire(1/2) and high
tensile(1/2) with 4 strain of the perimeter after we move, before the horses
are allowed out of the temporary pasture. We like the ease of
installation---that it should give if they slam into it-- and the 25 year
guarantee (for what it 's worth :) -- and the cost seems reasonable. (mind
you barbwire and field fence or high tensile are the norm for owners in the
area )(mine have fieldfence now with electric on top to keep them away and
have always had electric tape cross fencing)
Anybody have any experience with this? Or any hints?Have a stable herd.

There is another brand we look at that has steel rather than copper
braided in....bit cheaper... less guarantee....

This is not rope or twine, but a thick braid......
