Baygard Conductivity
Factors affecting
conductivity of electric fence wire are:
-
Diameter of the wire
(thickness)
-
Resistance of metal measured
in ohms per meter.
-
The lower the resistance, the
better the conductivity.
-
Number of conductors.
Conductor Wire
Diameter
Increasing the conductor
wire diameter will dramatically increase the volume of conductor wire.*

Resistance
The resistance of a conductor to
electrical flow (ohms per meter) is factor of the type of metal. Compare
the resistance ** of Baygard patented aluminum conductor to a .008"
(.2mm) stainless steel Polywire:
Baygard resistance is
approximately 50 Times lower than .008" stainless steel. Lower
resistance means better conductivity.
* Volume of metal is directly
proportional to the cross sectional area of the wire. (3.14R2
= Cross Sectional area)
** 3 Conductor wires
