I build a lot of fence for a lot of different horses and horse owners. I've seen them all, literally, from 4 plank to a single strand of un electrified barb. What Ive found is electrified barb is the least desirable, the arc can burn since its focused on a point, like a cautery pen.
What I see mostly is 4 plank. Its expensive to build and expensive to maintain. What I build for me, and for the horses I board here is 4 strand high tensile, all 4 electrified, top strand Equi flex (Gallagher product). All 4 strands Equi flex I think looks better or all 4 regular smooth high tensile. Any other wire fence can cut, and a horse is looking for an excuse to get a cut thats going to be huge, ugly, slow to heal, and cost a bunch. By far and away the cheapest perminant fence is the 4 strand smooth h.t. I'm in it less than a dollar a foot, plus payroll, gates, and energizer on USDA spec for EQIP.
