Hi, thank you for reaching out. For temporary electric fences using Polytape, the recommended spacing between line posts is 10 to 12 feet. If you are working with uneven, hilly terrain or need to contain more determined animals, shorten the spacing to 8 to 10 feet to prevent the tape from sagging or grounding out on vegetation.
