I had it well grounded and the hogs still wouldn't touch it. Finally found out it was coming in through the neutral from the pole across the yard. I never could feel it but the hogs would flinch back when they touched it. Jim [Reply]   [No Email]

Overhead triplex supply lines are a hangover from the bad old days and cause many problems. Make certain the ground and neutral are isolated anywhere past the 1st power panel or the central metering pole. At least two 10ft ground rods at every building or sub service . The ground system if allowed to carry neutral current will raise anything "grounded" above true earth potential. [Reply]  [No Email]
