We used an old AC not till planter to make the furrow in the ground then we just walked along and pushed the wire down with a yard stick every so often. Our wire was not stranded it was solid. Where the two ends meet and go to the power supply was 50ft from the house and I used my drill to wind the two long ends together as instructions said to.
Our dog is now full grown, part lab and part australian collie now 50 lbs.
The system worked great for a few months but as our pup got older she learned she could run fast thru it and would not get shocked that many times, since it only shocks when close or when over the wire.
If I would do it over again I would get the revolving power supply that sends out a signal 90 ft in each direction giving a 180ft diameter. When they get out of its signal it shocks for as long as they are out of range. Seems more effective than the fence. It is portable too if you want to take it camping or on vacation.
I"ll be pulling our hidden fence up and selling it.
This was just our experience and the fence covered apprx. 2 acres.
