I've seen plenty of times where a poor connection on the utility company connection was the problem. Basically, power goes out on the black, comes back on the white, but if the connection up top is going bad, the voltage bleeds off on to the various grounds. I have seen it travel through the television cable, the phone line, kitchen sinks and just about every thing imaginable. Electricity takes the easiest path to ground? Not always. It takes all paths in relation to the impedance on the line. A stock tank makes a perfect storm for stray voltage, and because it is back feeding, the GFCI is completely useless. A ground fault only compares the current flow between the hot and neutral. The ground can be carrying twice as much as long as the flow on them is balanced. If you look at most overhead connections the lines are covered and protected, but the neutral is open to the elements. It doesn't take much voltage to kill a cow. Bedding barn in SoDak went down in ice several years back. Lost several cows that came in contact with broken light bulbs.
